Day 3: Lake Manyara | Lake Manyara Tree Lodge

Lake Manyara National Park is one of the most diverse of Tanzania’s national parks, a tiny (325km²) combination of Rift Valley Lake, dense woodlands and steep mountainside. Made famous by elephant researcher, Dr Iain Douglas Hamilton in his book, ‘Among the Elephants’. Manyara was established specifically to protect the elephant herds that have made the area world-renowned. But heavy poaching in the 1970’s and 1980’s decimated the herds, although they are now recovering and returning to their former strengths. Manyara is a birding paradise (more than 380 species), especially for waterfowl and migrants, and the forests are one of the best places around to see leopards. Lions hunt on the grassy shores of the lake, and are famous for their habit of climbing trees.

Day DescriptionDepart after breakfast, in a private 4x4 landcruiser safari vehicle from Lake Duluti to Lake Manyara National Park. Arrangements for picnic lunch and for a Maasai visit, before proceeding to Lake Manyara National Park for safari. In the afternoon continue to Lake Manyara Tree Lodge.

Day 5: Ngorongoro Crater | Crater Lodge

The Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA) is an extensive highland area along the eastern arm of the Rift Valley, with the world-renowned Ngorongoro Crater as its focal point. Not a national park in the strict sense of the word, the NCA was established to conserve wildlife and other natural resources, as well as to safeguard the interests of indigenous people and promote tourism. Thus, guests on safari have the unique experience of seeing Maasai herdsmen whose cattle graze side by side with the tremendous variety of wildlife found in the area.

The largest intact caldera in the world, the Ngorongoro Crater shelters one of the most beautiful wildlife havens anywhere. A permanent population of more than 30 000 animals inhabit a mere 260 km² (100 square miles) in the 600 m (2 000 ft) deep crater, making this one of the few places in Africa where guests stand a great chance of seeing the entire Big Five in the course of a single game drive. Unique to the crater are the local Maasai grazing their cattle on the crater floor, sometimes, with a lion kill just a few hundred meters away

Day DescriptionBreakfast

Depart with private 4x4 landcruiser with picnic lunch for a walk in the Ngorongoro Highlands.

Afternoon continue the scenic drive around the crater to Ngorongoro Crater Lodge for check in, dinner and overnight.

This lodge's design is an incredible combination of traditional African with European. The rooms are unique, spacious and comfortable suites of wood, mud and glass, offering a dramatic view of the crater.

It has been called the game lodge at the end of the world and, between the spectacular views swirling through mists around the Ngorongoro Crater Lodge and its somewhat unexpected architecture, it is easy to believe that you have entered a realm of pure fantasy. Steeped in romance, each stilted, handcrafted mud and thatch suite is adorned with graceful antiques.

2 overnights: Ngorongoro Crater Lodge | SuiteA luxury lodge, divided in the sake of intimacy and quality to 3 separate little lodges

Day 7: Serengeti | Grumeti Serengeti Tented Camp

The name Serengeti stems from the Maasai word "Siring" referring to "endless plains", and that’s really what it is. The Serengeti is vast, stretching from the endless grass plains in the South to the woodlands in the north up to the Kenyan border. The size of the Serengeti eco-system as a whole is virtually the same size as Belgium. The Serengeti hosts the largest concentration of wildlife in the world, thought to be more than 3 million, and is home to one of the great wonders in the world, the Great Migration. Over a million of Wildebeest move annually from the southern plains, where they give birth in December - March, to the north and the Mara River, and back, accompanied by Zebra and other migratory mammals. Lion, cheetah, hyena, hunting dog and crocodiles make sure only the strongest survive.
