Despite being one of the smaller national parks in Tanzania, it is rich in biodiversity and offers stunning landscapes. The Mount Meru-dominated Arusha National Park is home to a diverse range of wildlife and stunning scenery. Numerous animals live in the Ngurdoto Crater, commonly called "Little Ngorongoro," including buffalo, giraffes, zebras, and primates. Lake Manyara National Park is situated at the base of the Great Rift Valley escarpment and covers an area of about 330 square kilometers. The park's most prominent feature is Lake Manyara itself, a shallow alkaline lake that stretches along the park's western boundary. At the foot of the Great Rift Valley escarpment, Lake Manyara National Park is renowned for its flamingo-filled lake and its variety of habitats. The Ngorongoro Crater is a World Heritage Site recognized by UNESCO and one of the most well-known wildlife attractions in Africa. It is a part of the broader Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The safari offers game drives, optional excursions, and a range of accommodation alternatives, including luxury lodges, tented camps, and luxury hotels. During a 3-day safari to these three destinations, visitors can expect to embark on game drives in each park, guided by experienced safari guides who are knowledgeable about the local flora and fauna. The itinerary typically includes early morning and late afternoon game drives when wildlife activity is at its peak. Additionally, some tour operators may offer optional activities such as walking safaris or cultural visits to nearby Maasai villages.
