Our guide will pick you at your accommodation in Arusha. You will drive approximately 126 kilometers from Arusha to Manyara National Park with lunch boxes for a game drive. Lake Manyara is an excellent place for bird watching and a good area to find elephants, giraffes, zebras, baboons, warthogs, buffalos, and maybe even the legendary tree-climbing lions.
Lake Manyara National Park is a wildlife viewing destination located southwest of Arusha and the northern part of Tanzania. This small but scenic park covers an area of only 330 square kilometers (127 square miles), of which up to 200 square kilometers (77 square miles) is made up of the lake when water levels are high. Activities such as canoeing, bird watching, and photography are offered along this lake as tourists explore the national park. Bird species include black-faced sand grouse, long-tailed fiscal, flamingos, pelicans, and many others. Enjoy your lunch box inside the park. After breakfast, you will take your lunch boxes, drive to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, descend the crater, and enjoy the game drive. The crater is often called Africa's Eden and is also considered the eighth Natural Wonder of the World. A visit to this amazing place is the main draw for tourists coming to Tanzania, and it is undoubtedly a world-class attraction. All of the Big Five (rhino, lion, leopard, buffalo, and elephant) live in this wonderful caldera. However, other wildlife includes zebra, hippo, wildebeest, hyena, and more. Birds include flamingoes on the soda lake, geese, storks, and vultures.
After an early breakfast, drive to Tarangire National Park for game viewing. The park is named after the Tarangire River, the only water source for wildlife in the region during the Dry season. The park is home to diverse vegetation, unlike others in the Northern safari circuit. Tarangire National Park has a large wildlife concentration, including the largest species of Africa's animals and hundreds of bird species. Apart from game viewing, the park is also the best for bird watching. However, tourists can engage in cultural visits and nature walks. Enjoy your lunch box inside the park. After lunch, you will drive back to Arusha for your departure or to your lodge, where we will drop you off.
Lake Manyara National Park sits southwest of Arusha, covering about 330 square kilometers, of which up to 200 can be lake when water levels are high. Ngorongoro Crater is a world-class caldera with soda-lake flamingoes.

Our Verdoro guide will pick you at your accommodation in Arusha for the drive of approximately 126 kilometers to Lake Manyara National Park.
After the Tarangire game drive you will drive back to Arusha for your departure or to your lodge, where we will drop you off. Share hotel and airport times.
Nights sit between the Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire park days on this three-day northern circuit, with lunch boxes inside the parks at midday rather than a hotel restaurant stop.
Confirm your Arusha pickup hotel when you book so the 126 kilometer transfer to Manyara and the final drop-off at your lodge or departure point stay on one timetable after the Tarangire game drive.
Pack layered safari clothing, a warm layer for Ngorongoro Crater, closed shoes, sun protection, and binoculars for flamingoes, elephants, and birdlife.
Keep a small daypack for lunch boxes, water, and cameras on the three park days.
The published safari covers the Arusha pickup, game drives in Lake Manyara National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park, lunch boxes inside the parks, and the return drop-off in Arusha.
We run this safari per person and need at least two people in the vehicle. Guiding, the park drives, picnic lunches, the Arusha pickup, and the final drop-off all sit in the same bundle.
International flights, extra Arusha nights, visas, personal items, and tips sit outside the bundle.
Plan Kilimanjaro or Arusha airport tickets separately, and keep cash for optional canoeing or cultural visits in Tarangire.

Lunch boxes are carried into Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park. Breakfasts sit before the crater and Tarangire starts.
Tell us vegetarian, vegan, or allergy requirements when you book so picnic boxes can be packed for two or more travellers.
Pack layered safari clothing, a warm layer for the crater floor, closed shoes, sun protection, and binoculars for flamingoes, elephants, and birdlife.
Keep a small daypack for lunch boxes, water, and cameras on full park days. Add a light warm layer for the crater floor, which can feel cooler than the Manyara lakeshore and the Tarangire afternoon.
Game drives are mostly seated. The crater descent is a winding road onto the floor, and Tarangire can be a long, hot day before the Arusha return.
Share mobility notes when you book. Optional canoeing at Manyara and nature walks at Tarangire are extra time on your feet if you add them.
Pickup is from your accommodation in Arusha. The final drop-off is Arusha for your departure or your lodge.
Share Kilimanjaro or Arusha airport times if you need a connection after Tarangire, because that park day ends with the drive back to town.
