Day 2
Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park
Early morning after breakfast, we depart to Lake Manyara National Park which is an unspoilt paradise and is particularly famous for its abundance of birds and tree-climbing lions. The dramatic western escarpment of the Rift Valley basically forms the Park’s western border. To the east is the shallow, alkaline Lake Manyara. Furthermore, the lake covers a large area of the park, flooding and drying with the seasons and is home to thousands of flamingos during the rains. The name Manyara comes from the Maasai word ‘emanyara’, a popular plant which is used to build the protective enclosure around a family homestead (boma). Unquestionably, the Park’s vegetation is diverse, ranging from savannah to evergreen forest. On your exploration of the park you may see giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, as well as buffalo, and elephant. If you are lucky, you can also spot lions lounging in the trees. After Lunch and an extensive game drive, we head for our luxury partner lodges in Karatu for dinner and overnight.

Stay: Kitela Lodge
Day 3
Ngorongoro crater
Early morning after breakfast, we depart to Ngorongoro crater. When you first see Ngorongoro Crater, it looks like a forgotten world. Concealed by the steep volcanic walls is a pristine wilderness including sweeping savannah, pockets of acacia woodland, as well as glistening lakes and swamps. It is particularly interesting that the Crater was created when a large volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself two to three million years ago. Moreover, it is famous equally for its geological delights and for being a natural reserve which is home to some of the densest large mammal populations in the whole of the African continent. Undoubtedly the drive down into the Crater is an adventure in itself. When you reach the Crater floor, you quickly find yourself amongst large numbers of wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, and also more than 500 bird species. Furthermore, the Crater provides you with the best chance of seeing the endangered black rhino, which you can sometimes spot it in the open grasslands. After Lunch and extensive game drive in the park, we head back to Arusha. All in all this marks the end of our adventure.
