In the morning, we will pick you up from your hotel in Arusha and drive to the first national park of your visit. Despite being one of the smaller, Lake Manyara National park is one of the most scenic one. Despite its small area of only 330 square kilometres, occupied almost entirely by the Soda lake, the vegetation is so varied as to allow the coexistence of different habitats among them. Elephants and huge troops of baboons in the forest can be easily seen and if you are luck enough even tree-climbing lions can be spotted. A variety of wildlife can be found around the lake, as buffalos, wildebeest, wathorgs, giraffes, zebras and flamingoes.

Lake Manyara is an ideal park to combine game drive with enjoyable activities, like Cultural Tour, Cycling, Canopy Walk or Zip-line,

On this day we suggest a very early wake up in order to do an early morning game drive in the crater(when the animals are more active). Today we’ll proceed to Ngorongoro Crater, this collapsed volcano is the main feature of the area and creates a unique ecosystem with a wide variety of vegetation making it the 8th wonder of the Natural World. The crater spreads for 102 sq. miles and has 2.000ft high walls, making it virtually Noah's ark and inhabiting almost every species of wildlife that is indigenous to East Africa. It's one of the very rare locations in the whole continent where if you are lucky you can witness the black Rhino. The concentration of African wildlife if the greatest in the continent. It's also famous for its elephants which are the largest in the world and have huge tusks. This is due to the rich mineral content of the volcanic soil and its grasses. Ngorongoro Crater is truly a Wonder of the Natural World. You will reach Ngorongoro in time for a sundowner. 

There are a range of activities to do in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, like visiting a Maasai village, visiting Oldupai George, Hiking Olmoti crater, visitng the shifting Sand etc.

In the morning, we will pick you up from your lodge in Karatu and drive to Tarangire National Park, which is famously known to be the home of the giants (Huge Baobab Trees and Large Herds of Elephants). Its sparse vegetation makes it a beautiful and special location, where up to 300 elephants can be found, looking for underground streams in the dry riverbeds. Migratory wildebeest, zebra and buffalo can also be seen crowding the shrinking lagoons. Here you will enjoy an afternoon game drive with a picnic lunch before heading to your hotel in Arusha.

Very fascinating trip. We drove to Tarangeri and camped in the park for the night. We drove around the first day without seeing any elephants, but the following day we came pretty close. Overall, our guides were fantastic; they shared with us their experiences and history while also adding a good dose of humor—always a pleasure. I'm grateful.

Gifton is so warm and friendly..he accompanied us and some friends on our safari tour. He took the time to seek out the animals and made sure we had enough time to take pictures and admire the animals.. he was very approachable and very knowledgeable. He also made sure we were safe and protected! I will never forget this experience! Thank you Gifton

Gifton was incredible to work with- he listened to our groups wants and customized a tour that suited several different peoples budget. Everyone was extremely happy and I would recommend him for anything you want to do around Arusha or safaris! He's a great communicator and he's so much fun! Plus, I liked that I was supporting a local tour company instead of an international company. 5 stars!
