3 Days Highlights of Tanzania Safari
3-Day Tanzania Wildlife Safari: Ngorongoro Crater & Lake Manyara (or Tarangire)
Departs from / Returns to: Arusha.
Enjoy this amazing safari in a customized pop-up roof Walk With Maa Tours 4×4 Safari Jeep that includes: Cooler Box, long-range high-frequency radio, Power Outlets AC 230V, First Aid Kit, and above all, a professional multi-lingual safari guide who will ensure you have an unforgettable safari experience.
Tanzania is alive with colorful wildlife herding in dense and unusual parks – we’ll explore two of these dynamic areas on this spirited Tanzania Safari. The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is unique in the world of safaris – it’s the largest intact volcanic caldera on Earth, often called the “Eighth Wonder of the World.” We’ll travel down into this dense, self-contained world of active wildlife in our 4×4 Jeep, a true natural marvel.
Lake Manyara National Park, small but jewel-like, captivates visitors with the spectacle of thousands of bright, pink flamingos along the lake’s shores! Add to that some very unusual tree-climbing lions, and you’ll find yourself in a most enchanting spot.
Optional Substitution: Tarangire National Park We also offer you the option of visiting lightly touristed Tarangire National Park, instead of Lake Manyara. This park is renowned for its great herds of elephants and an active migration of thousands of animals passing through its borders, especially during the dry season, making it a fantastic alternative.
Get ready for 3 days of exciting discovery on this fast African safari. Walk With Maa Tours will handle all the details – all you have to do is enjoy the adventure in your private 4×4 jeep. Should you have any special requests, please let us know. We’re here to create your best safari experience ever!
Your Journey Begins – Safari Highlights:
Ngorongoro Crater: A World Within a World: We’ll head out from Arusha to the Ngorongoro Crater. Here you’ll find the richest ecosystem of lions in Africa, plus thick numbers of other predator cats like cheetah, leopard, hyena, and jackal. And you’ll discover plenty of other large game on the crater’s expansive floor like vast herds of elephant, buffalo, gazelle, and rarities like the critically endangered black rhino and the elusive wild hunting dogs. Toward day’s end, we’ll head up the volcano’s walls to take in a blazing sunset on the crater’s rim, a truly breathtaking experience.
Lake Manyara National Park: Flamingos & Tree-Climbing Lions: From the great expanse of Ngorongoro, we’ll journey to a small gem called Lake Manyara National Park – a stunning mix of thick forest and the blue expanse of the lake. This pretty park offers us sightings of elephants, giraffes, impalas, leopards, and active troops of baboons. One of the most unusual animal spottings you’ll enjoy at the park is the sight of a lion above you… lazily resting on a tree branch. The tree-climbing lions of Manyara are famous throughout the region, but so are the uncountable pink flamingos found on the shallow alkaline lake. Feeding on the algae, the minerals turn the birds’ feathers into a dazzling pink complexion – multiplied by the tens of thousands. The sight is at once beautiful, stunning, and inspiring.
