4 Days Tanzania Safari to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and Ngorongoro

Day 1: Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park

After breakfast, we will drive you to Lake Manyara National Park - one of the smaller wildlife protected areas in Tanzania. Lake Manyara is a shallow alkaline lake created by a depression within the Great Rift Valley. It provides the perfect introduction to Tanzania’s bird life, with more than 400 recorded and it is renowned for the abundance of flamingos. If you are lucky, you will have an opportunity to see the tree climbing lions. After the late afternoon game drive, you will be escorted to your Karatu accommodation for dinner and overnight.

Day 2: Lake Manyara to Tarangire National Park 

After breakfast in your hotel, you’ll depart towards Tarangire National Park, and with an approximate 2 hour drive you will arrive at your destination. Tarangire is considered to be one of the best places in Africa where you can have a close encounter with the elephants. Not only because there are thousands of these giant animals present, but also because they are used to the presence of the vehicles.  From the open roof safari car you will be able to absorb the landscape and watch the animals. The park is also a home of buffaloes, zebras and wildebeests, closely followed by a range of predators such as lions and less frequently leopards and cheetahs. Tarangire is also famous for its tree climbing pythons and huge baobab trees. In the late afternoon you will leave the park and drive to your accommodation in karatu for a delicious dinner and overnight stay.

Day 3: Tarangirte to Ngorongoro Crater

Early morning, after breakfast, you will check out and venture to Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The massive collapsed volcano crater is a home of over  25,000 mammals ranging from the “Big Five” – lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino and  leopard to spotted hyenas, rare wild dogs and more than 500 bird species. You can hardly find wildlife protected area as dense and varied with life as Ngorongoro crater.  After picnic lunch, you will descend into the crater floor for a game drive. Later in the afternoon you will be taken to your accommodation for dinner and overnight stay.

Day 4: Ngorongoro to Arusha

Early in the morning, you will have another game drive within the crater. Afterwards, we start the drive to Arusha, where our adventure ends. We can take you to your

hotel where you will spend the night or drive you to the airport for your flight home. In case you have more time to spare, we can organize some other activities for you, maybe few days of Zanzibar beach leisure.
