6 DAYS L. MANYARA/ NGORONGORO / SERENGETI WILDLIFE CAMPING SAFARI.

Visit Tanzania largest and most famous national park with the wildebeest migration expected in December and May, Tree climbing lions and birdlife in manyara and finally a tour to the worlds most visited destination (Ngorongoro) famous for high wildlife concentration and breath taking sceneries.

Day 01: Arusha ? Lake Manyara
Leave Arusha to Lake Manyara. Afternoon game drive. Dinner and overnight at Lake Manyara Twiga/Jambo/Fig Tree campsite.

The Lake Manyara National park is serene and beautiful with main attractions of a rich bird life, tree-climbing lions, its elephants, and hippos that you can see at closer range than most other places. Lake Manyara is an alkaline lake and at certain times of the year hosts thousands of flamingos and a diversity of other bird life. Although it is one of the smallest parks, its vegetation is so diverse enabling it to host a variety of wildlife habitats.

Day 02: Lake Manyara - Serengeti
Depart after breakfast to Serengeti passing through Olduvai Gorge the site for Leakey?s family discoveries of fossils of human and animal ancestors dating back to almost two million years. Meals and overnight at Seronera  campsite.

Day 03: Serengeti Full day
A full day in Serengeti, morning and afternoon game drives. Meals and overnight at Seronera Public campsite as the day before.

You can visit the park all year round but there is less game in the park during the dry season ? July /October, where they migrate to the Masai Mara in Kenya. During March to May the herdsmove in search of grazing to the southern section and in May to June, they move towards the western corridor of the park. Serengeti in the low season will still offer game viewing to match that of any park in Africa, and for some, the fact that there will be fewer tourists may be an added bonus

Day 04: Serengeti ? Ngorongoro Crater rim
Morning game drive. After breakfast depart to one of the natural wonders of the world, Ngorongoro Crater with Game drive en route. Dinner and overnight at Ngorongoro Simba Public campsite.

Day 05: Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast you will be taken 2000ft down the crater by a 4wheel drive vehicle for a full day crater tour, picnic lunch at crater. Explore the crater before ascending back to the Ngorongoro Simba Public/Kudu campsite for dinner and overnight.

The Ngorongoro crater is the world?s biggest whole volcanic caldera at 8300 sq km and is arguably the most stunning arena.

It is frequently described as one of the wonders of the world, not only because of its geological magnificence, but also because it serves as an extraordinary natural sanctuary for some of Africa?s largest populations of large mammals. Ngorongoro and other freestanding mountains are volcanic in origin, formed during the fracturing process that created the Rift valley 15 to 20 million years ago. When it peaked in size 3 million years ago it was a similar height to Mt. Kilimanjaro today.
