On this day your safari will start at 8:00 AM in the morning with your guide and drive to Lake Manyara National Park. The park offers a mosaic of vegetation habitats which can sustain a high density of wildlife. Its groundwater forest which acts like a giant filtering sponge which gradually releases water so it can flow gently into streams, instead of running off, prevents the soil from eroding. From its high concentrations of animals such as elephant, buffalo, and antelopes to its dense forests of Trichilia, ficus, and Acacia species, the park is diverse with both wildlife and vegetation. With its location at the base of the east African rift valley along the Gregory rift, it offers spectacular viewing of the escarpment. Lake Manyara is one of those national parks which offer rich and diverse game viewing within a reasonably small area. It is one of the best areas for elephant viewing and tree climbing lions.
After breakfast, you will drive towards the Serengeti National Park via the beautiful high lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Serengeti National Park is the endless plains, rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see. You will continue with a game drive to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species.
You will wake early in the morning and having breakfast then start a game drive at 7:00 AM to see nocturnal predators returning from hunting. Continue with a game drive to Ngorongoro and pass through Naabi Hill Gate towards Ngorongoro conservation area. Proceed with a game drive and visit the Maasai village where you will experience the Maasai traditions and culture and later in the evening will drive to overnight at Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge
After breakfast around 7:30 AM you will descend into the crater for a wonderful game drive with picnic lunch. The Crater (World Heritage site) holding a permanent population of more than 30,000 animals, with its 2000 ft, high walls, you can expect to see lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos, flamingos, jackals, rhinos, antelopes, many birds, and other species. The crater is also home of the rare black rhino almost extinct in Tanzania. With a bit of luck, you will see the “Big Five” during the game drive.
After breakfast, you will be picked up from the hotel and drive to the airport you will be there 2 hours before your flight time.
