Itinerary
Day 1
Arusha | Tarangire
Day 1 Arusha – Tarangire National Park After a short briefing in the morning, you will travel in a south-westerly direction to the Tarangire National Park, best-known for its huge elephant herds. The park has a diversity of landscapes and animals range from swarms of yellow-breasted lovebirds to buffaloes, giraffes, and warthogs. Predators include lions, leopards, and hyenas, while wild dogs are very rare. In the late afternoon, you will leave the park and travel to the Lodge where you will spend the night. Lunch; Dinner
Day 2
Lake Manyara | Tarangire
Day 2 Tarangire Area – Lake Manyara National Park – Karatu After breakfast, you leave the Tarangire Area and via the town of Mto wa Mbu, you make your way to the Lake Manyara National Park. The park stretches along the 600 m high Rift Valley Escarpment and is dominated by the shallow and alkaline Lake Manyara which attracts thousands of birds, including huge flocks of flamingos. Other animals in the park include buffaloes, elephants, hippos and Masai giraffes as well as troops of boisterous baboons and monkeys in the forests. The park once became famous for tree climbing lions and if you are lucky to spot them you will be amused by the site of these animals lounging on branches in the acacia trees.
