5
Days Manyara | Serengeti | Ngorongoro Lodge Safaris
Day
1. Lake Manyara.
Depart Arusha in the morning
for Lake Manyara, Afternoon
game drive to explore this
wonderful park famous for
its tree-climbing lions and
birdlife. Contrasting with
the intimacy of the forest,
is the grass floodplain and
its expansive views eastward
across the alkaline lake, to
the jagged blue volcanic
peaks that rise from the
endless Maasai steppes large
buffalo, wildebeest and
zebra congregate on these
grassy plains, as do
giraffes. Some so dark in
coloration that they appear
to be from a distance.
Dinner and overnight at
lodge.
Day 2. Ngorongoro.
After breakfast proceed on
to Ngorongoro crater to
arrive in time for lunch.
After the lunch descend to
the floor of the crater by
use of 4wheel drive vehicle
that will take you 2000ft
down to the crater. The
Crater is one of the world's
greatest natural spectacles;
its magical setting and
abundant wildlife never fail
to enthral visitors. It
borders the Serengeti
National Park to the north
and west. Dinner and
overnight at a lodge.
Day 3. Serengeti.
After breakfast depart for
Serengeti passing through
Olduvai Gorge the site of
Leakey’s family discovery of
fossils of human and animal
ancestors dating back to
almost two million years.
The Serengeti ecosystem is
one of the oldest on earth.
The essential features of
climate, vegetation and
fauna have barely changed in
the past million years.
Early man himself made an
appearance in Olduvai Gorge
about two million years ago.
Some patterns of life,
death, adaptation and
migration are as old as the
hills themselves. Meals and
overnight at lodge.
Day 4. Serengeti.
Full day in Serengeti
plains, Search for wild game
you might have missed the
previous game drive. Morning
and after noon game drives.
It is the migration for
which Serengeti is perhaps
most famous. Over a million
wildebeest and about 200,000
zebras flow south from the
northern hills to the
southern plains for the
short rains every October
and November, and then swirl
west and north after the
long rains in April, May and
June. So strong is the
ancient instinct to move
that no drought, gorge or
crocodile infested river can
hold them back. Meals and
overnight at lodge.
Day 5. Arusha..
After breakfast, depart to
Arusha town- where the
safari ends.
