Embark on a 3-day safari to Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara National Park. See the Big Five and other animals in their natural habitat, and enjoy a picnic lunch in the park.

Day 1: Arusha - Tarangire National Park
At 8:00 AM, get picked up from your hotel in Arusha. Drive to Tarangire National Park for game viewing. At 1:00 PM, take your lunch in the park picnic area. In the evening, drive to Farm of Dreams/Marera Mountain View Lodge for dinner and overnight.

Day 2: Ngorongoro Crater
After an early breakfast at your lodge, travel down a precipitous trail into the crater. Its grass plains and acacia forests are home to almost all the species of animals found in the East African savannah. In only a few hours, you might see all of the Big Five – lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino, and leopard – as well as eland, mountain reedbucks, hyenas, and rare wild dogs.
After an extensive game drive and a picnic lunch inside the crater, overnight at your lodge in Karatu.

Day 3: Lake Manyara National Park - Arusha
After breakfast, leave the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and drive via the town of Mto wa Mbu to the Lake Manyara National Park. This park with its shallow alkaline lake stretches along the base of the Rift Valley Escarpment. Lake Manyara attracts thousands of birds.
Other animals in the park include buffaloes, elephants, hippos, and Masai giraffes as well as troops of boisterous baboons and monkeys in the forests. The park once became famous for tree-climbing lions and if you are lucky to spot them you will be amused by the site of these animals lounging on branches in the acacia trees.
After a long day in Lake Manyara, drive back to Arusha to your hotel.
