<h3 style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Day 1: Arusha – Lake Manyara</strong></h3>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Meet our professional naturalistic safari guide/driver in Arusha town, and proceed to the Lake Manyara National Park. Lake Manyara National park is one of Tanzania’s most dramatically located wildlife areas, consisting of a massive but shallow soda lake (covering two-thirds of the park) at the foot of the Great Rift Valley’s western escarpment. The park’s varied habitat attracts a wide variety of animals, including one of Africa’s largest concentrations of elephants, Manyara’s famous tree-climbing lions, as well as large flocks of flamingos attracted by the algae in the lake. After all day game drives, wildlife viewing tours and sightseeing have dinner and overnight the Lodge or tented Camp.</p>
<h3 style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Day 2: Lake Manyara National Park – Ngorongoro Crater</strong></h3>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">After breakfast we descend 600m into this magnificent crater for a morning, Full-day game drive. The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the most densely crowded African wildlife areas in the world and is home to an estimated 30,000 animals including some of Tanzania’s last remaining black rhino. Supported by a year round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro Crater supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park is it’s dense population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot. We will enjoy a picnic lunch in the crater, after which we travel to the Tarangire National Park. Have dinner and overnight at the Lodge or Tented Camp.</p>
<h3 style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Day 3: Tarangire National Park – Arusha</strong></h3>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">After breakfast do we head into the Tarangire National Park for a morning game drive. The park runs along the line of the Tarangire River and is mainly made up of low-lying hills on the Great Rift Valley floor. Its natural vegetation mainly consists of Acacia woodland and giant African Baobab trees, with huge swamp areas in the south. Both the river and the swamps act like a magnet for wild animals, during Tanzania’s dry season. The Tarangire National Park is reputed to contain some of the largest elephant herds in Africa. This African national park is also home to three rare species of animals – the Greater Kudu, the Fringe-eared Oryx, as well as a few Ashy Starlings. After game drives/wildlife viewing tours, return to Arusha for further travel logistics like accommodation or transfer to Kilimanjaro International Airport, JRO.</p>
