Once you’re recharged, we’ll head back out for more game drives. The diversity of wildlife in Tarangire is astounding, with over 500 species of birds and plenty of unique flora. Keep your eyes peeled for the curious dik-dik and the vibrant yellow-billed stork. This park is a photographer’s paradise, so be sure to have your camera ready!

Evening: Sunset Viewing and Transfer to Accommodation

As the sun begins to set, we’ll find the perfect spot to witness the breathtaking views of the African sunset. The sky transforms into a canvas of orange, pink, and purple—a moment you won’t want to miss.

After the sun dips below the horizon, we’ll transfer you to your comfortable lodge or tented camp for the night. Enjoy a delicious dinner, recount the day’s adventures, and rest up for the exciting days ahead!

Day 2: Ngorongoro Crater – A Wonder of Nature

Morning: Journey to Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast, we’ll check out from our accommodation and make our way to the Ngorongoro Crater, one of the most famous natural wonders in the world. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is often referred to as a “Garden of Eden” due to its stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife.

As we descend into the crater, which is about 2,000 feet deep and covers over 100 square miles, you’ll be amazed at the lush greenery and the variety of animals that call this area home. From the “Big Five” (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhinoceros) to a plethora of bird species, the crater is a wildlife haven.

Afternoon: Game Viewing in the Crater

Prepare for an exhilarating day of game spotting! The Ngorongoro Crater is home to a stable population of wildlife, and the chances of seeing animals up close are incredibly high.

We’ll pause for a picnic lunch amidst the stunning landscapes, allowing you to soak in the beauty around you. Picture enjoying your meal while watching a herd of buffalo graze nearby or hearing the distant roar of a lion. After lunch, we’ll continue exploring the crater, venturing to different habitats to maximize our wildlife sightings.

Evening: Return to Accommodation

As the day comes to a close, we’ll ascend the crater and make our way to our next accommodation. After checking in, unwind and reflect on the magnificent creatures you encountered today. Dinner will be served at the lodge, followed by a cozy evening under the African stars.

Day 3: Lake Manyara National Park – A Birdwatcher’s Paradise

Morning: Departure to Lake Manyara

Afternoon: Game Drive and Bird Watching

Once inside the park, you’ll embark on a thrilling game drive. Lake Manyara is home to diverse ecosystems, from lush forests to open grasslands. This park is particularly known for its birdlife. With over 400 species recorded, birdwatchers will find themselves in paradise. Look out for the vibrant lilac-breasted roller, the majestic African fish eagle, and the iconic pink flamingos lining the shores of the lake.

In addition to birds, you might spot elephants, hippos, and the elusive tree-climbing lions that Lake Manyara is famous for. Each sighting will leave you in awe of the beauty of nature.

Afternoon: Picnic Lunch and Last Game Drive

We’ll take a break for a delightful picnic lunch at a scenic spot within the park. As you enjoy your meal, the sounds of the park will surround you, creating a serene atmosphere.
