DAY 2
Lake Manyara National Park to Serengeti National Park.
Enjoy breakfast, before entering Lake Manyara National Park for an early morning game drive. Stretching for 50km’s along the base of the 600 metre high Rift Valley Escarpment, Lake Manyara is a scenic gem, with a setting described by Ernest Hemingway as the “loveliest I had seen in Africa”. The compact game-viewing circuit through Manyara offers a virtual microcosm of the Tanzanian safari experience. Return to Camp for lunch before commencing the drive to the World famous Serengeti National Park. Tanzania’s oldest and most popular National Park, also a world heritage site and recently proclaimed a 7th world wide wonder, the Serengeti is famed for its annual migration, when some six million hooves pound the open plains, as more than 200,000 zebra and 300,000 Thomson’s gazelle join the wildebeest’s trek for fresh grazing. Yet even when the migration is quiet, the Serengeti offers arguably the most scintillating game-viewing in Africa.

Enjoy a packed lunch or return to your accommodation for a chance to stretch your legs and enjoy a cooked lunch. After lunch you will set out again in your safari vehicle for an afternoon game drive. Photographic opportunities will abound as the sun sets on these world famous plains. A sight never to be forgotten. At sunset return to your accommodation for dinner and an overnight stay.

The 2,000 feet high walls of the approximately 10 mile wide crater create a natural amphitheatre for the densest populations of large animals anywhere in the world. With a resident population of over 25,000 mammals, you are sure to be overwhelmed by the abundance of wildlife that exists within the crater. The Ngorongoro Crater is a microcosm of the African safari experience and in one day it is possible to see a staggering array of wildlife including all the big carnivores.
