What鈥檚 Cool About These Parks?
Not too many parks can show off thousands of pink flamingoes and tree-climbing lions. A visit to Lake Manyara Park will reward you with delightful surprises like these, plus stunning acacia woods alive with blue monkeys and baboons. All that wildlife and over 400 species of birds fill the skies above.
More interested in spotting elephants than tourists? Then add Tarangire Park to your safari itinerary. This much over-looked reserve supports thousands of big tusker elephants and is home to its own migration of over 250,000 herding wildlife!
The Ngorongoro Crater is a true wonder of the world. The planet鈥檚 largest intact volcanic caldera, this vibrant ecosystem is a universe unto itself with a density of over 25,000 animals. All of Africa鈥檚 鈥淏ig Five鈥 are here in addition to gazelle, hartebeest, eland, warthogs, hippos and pink flamingoes. And the sunsets at the crater鈥檚 rim are not to be missed.
The great Serengeti National Park astounds with over 3,000 lions and other big cats. Perhaps even more spectacular is the uncountable array of wildebeests and zebra, filling its great plains. This is where the Great Migration is born 鈥 millions of animals amassing and then herding on in an endless formation in search of food and water 鈥 a most spectacular sight.

We鈥檒l spend our first safari night at our Tarangire safari lodge or tented camp.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
The safari life means rising early so we can enjoy the peaceful morning, with the sights, sounds, and smells of the new day, fresh and ready to be explored.
We鈥檒l take a game drive to see who we can spot, enjoy our breakfast, and then make tracks for Serengeti National Park.
This will be a fun and scenic journey, stopping for lunch and taking in the surrounding scenery.
Arriving at Serengeti, you may be in awe of the vastness of its plains and its overwhelming wildlife. You won鈥檛 have to look for the wildebeests 鈥 they are everywhere, as are the zebra, impala, gazelle, and buffalo.
Tomorrow is a big day of game drives on the immense savannahs here, so we鈥檒l rest up at our Serengeti accommodations, enjoy dinner and make plans for the adventure.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

The variety of game is striking as well, be on the lookout for baboon, monkey, and the rare African wild dog. In the park鈥檚 marshes, we鈥檒l even find hippos and crocodiles in the nearby rivers.

Let鈥檚 get an early start as we鈥檝e got lots to see and do today.
Heading for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, we鈥檒l make a fascinating detour stop along the way.
At Olduvai Gorge, the ground opens up before us, revealing fissures and strata that have given up an incredible wealth of fossilized artifacts 鈥 remnants of tools and bones 鈥 a visual record of early man鈥檚 development.
Then we鈥檙e headed to the great volcanic crater at Ngorongoro, the largest intact caldera in the world. We鈥檒l drive down the steep banks of the crater鈥檚 walls in our 4 x 4, arriving in an almost mystical land dense with wildlife, woods, plains, and marshes.
We鈥檒l spend our day here discovering lions, leopards, black rhinos, monkeys, antelope, zebra, elephants, and even pink flamingoes.
Then it鈥檚 lunchtime. Check out the marshes for hippos and still more birdlife. The Ngorongoro is never at a loss for providing colorful sightings.
But we鈥檙e not done yet. Toward evening, we鈥檒l head back up the crater鈥檚 walls to the rim where we鈥檒l catch one of Africa鈥檚 most breathtaking sunsets.
Tonight, our final safari night will be spent at our Ngorongoro accommodation.
Meals: Breakfast & Lunch
Here鈥檚 some motivation for an early rise 鈥 a stunning sunrise back at the crater鈥檚 rim. If you wish, we鈥檒l arrive there in time to bathe in the sun鈥檚 first explosive rays.
But then it鈥檚 time to point our 4 x 4 back to Arusha. We鈥檒l make rest stops along the way, enjoying our lunch and taking in the farms and scenery.
