Let’s hit the ground running! With your guide leading the way, you’ll set off on a thrilling game drive.

You’ll also have the chance to spot a wide array of bird species, including flamingos and pelicans that flock to the lake.
Afternoon: Picnic Lunch Amidst Nature
After an exhilarating morning of wildlife watching, it’s time to refuel! We’ll find a scenic spot within the park to set up a delightful picnic lunch. Enjoy a delicious meal surrounded by the sounds of nature—perhaps the calls of birds or the rustle of leaves in the gentle breeze.
Post-Lunch: Continue the Adventure
Once you’re recharged, it’s time to continue your adventure in Lake Manyara. This park is a marvel of contrasts, from its dense forests to open grasslands and the shimmering waters of the lake. Your guide will take you to hidden gems within the park, ensuring you experience the full diversity of its wildlife and landscapes.

As you enter the crater, you’ll be captivated by its beauty. The lush grasslands, dense forests, and shimmering lakes create a paradise for both animals and visitors. Your guide will lead you on a thrilling game drive, where you’ll have ample opportunities to spot the “Big Five”—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhinoceros—along with other fascinating wildlife.
Midday: Picnic Lunch Within the Crater
During your exploration of the crater, we’ll take a break to enjoy a picnic lunch surrounded by the stunning scenery. Watch as animals roam nearby while you savor a delicious meal prepared just for you. This is your chance to relax and soak in the magic of the Ngorongoro Crater.
