The day we visited the Lake, unfortunately couldn't see too many animals. But it is a beautiful place.

Godson and Charles, our guides, were very friendly and professionals. Always attentive to look for and show us animals. They also took good care of us. Always willing to stop and give us time to see the animals and take as many photos as we wanted to.

Godson tried hard to look for animals, but unsuccessfully.

All flamingos are gone. Due to extension of the lake the scenery looks a bit spooky.

As we have been in there, lions were not in climbing mood ... we haev not seen any lions in this park.
We saw a lot of monkeys, and maybe two elephants.
The park is beautiful, but in other parks was the wildlife much better.

Scenary not as good as other Tanzania parks I have been to, but good as the starting point of safari.

So many monkeys! A great place to see lots of wildlife up close as it is such a small national park.

Lake Manyara is a little bit destroyed from the flood. In the morning we almost saw no animals than Monkeys! Would not recommend!

Wildlife significally less then in other NP like Ngorogoro or Tarangire as most animals migrated.
Mainly birds and monkeys, but beautiful landscape
