5-Day Mid-Range Group Safari Experience

After breakfast you will depart the lodge at 8:30 am enroute to Lake Manyara National Park with a picnic hot lunch in hand. Stretching for 50 km along the base of the rusty-gold 600-metre high Rift Valley escarpment, Lake Manyara is a scenic gem, with a setting extolled by Ernest Hemingway as “the loveliest I had seen in Africa.” The compact game-viewing circuit through Lake Manyara offers a virtual microcosm of the Tanzanian safari experience. From the entrance gate, the road winds through an expanse of lush jungle-like groundwater forest where hundred-strong baboon troops lounge nonchalantly along the roadside, blue monkeys scamper nimbly between the ancient mahogany trees, dainty bushbuck tread warily through the shadows, and outsized forest hornbills honk cacophonously in the high canopy. After a full-day game drive you will make your way to Suricata Boma Lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.

After breakfast you will make your way to Serengeti National Park for a full-day game drive (and picnic lunch). A million wildebeest, each one driven by the same ancient rhythm, fulfill their instinctive role in the inescapable cycle of life here. They participate in a frenzied three-week bout of territorial conquests and mating, as well as a survival of the fittest as they plunge in 40km (25 mile) long columns through crocodile-infested waters on the annual exodus north. After a brief population explosion that produces more than 8,000 calves daily, the 1,000 km (600 mile) pilgrimage begins again.

Awake early morning for a game drive in Serengeti National Park where you may see wildebeests, lion, elephant, leopard, impala, gazelle, cheetah, and maybe wildebeests migration before you take brunch. As the evening approaches, travel through the scenic highlands toward Ngorongoro, arriving at Marera Valley Lodge for a peaceful night’s stay in the heart of the countryside.

Early breakfast, proceed directly to the Crater floor for a 6-hour game watching inside the crater the sight to big five animals which includes Lions, leopards, elephants, buffalos and maybe black rhinoceros with picnic lunches down the crater at Ngoitoktok spring here you will also able to see other big mammal includes hippopotami, giraffe, warthog, baboons, and birds. After about 6 hours ascending the crater rim to Arusha with an en-route game drive via Mto wa Mbu village in the evening reach your hotel in Arusha town. At the end of your tour, we will drop you off at the airport.
