We were not there at the best season - lake very dried up. In addition it was the last we visited so we were already blasé seeing elephants again. A good number of different monkeys.

I'm basing this on my first visit to Manyara in 2012 because we inexplicably didn't see a single animal this year. The wildlife in Manyara doesn't seem as varied to me as it is in other national parks, but the elephant population is a joy. I also love all the trees, which Lake Manyara NP seems to have more of than any other national park out there. This makes it a lush, green space even during the dry season. It's fairly touristy, but not too much so.

Much wildlife was seen in this park as well as many birds. Not real crowded with other tourists.

It's a beautiful & scenic park with varied landscapes (dense forests, and the wide open expanses around the lake) and more giraffe than we have ever seen in one place. We did not, however, see the fabled "tree climbing lions" - which we saw plenty of in the Serengeti National Park.

Spend more time at Tarangire or Ngorongoro instead.
