Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara Extension

Tanzania is famous for its wildlife before its mountains and beaches, it would be a great shame to come all this way and to not see any of it other than the ants climbing Kilimanjaro! These Safari Extensions are designed just for you: There is your own dedicated vehicle with a driver – guide throughout and within the parameters of the holiday, you will be able to dictate what is seen and how long you spend. When you are tired you can move on to the hotel or Safari Lodge and rest.

The two best parks for wildlife viewing reasonably near to Moshi are Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro. Our first experience is driving out of from Moshi, then past of the busy administrative town of Arusha and out through the Maasai homelands. These are areas of golden Acacia plain and red earth spiked with termite hills. Soon you will arrive at Manyara, a beautiful Lakeland park located between the cliffs of the Great Rift Valley and Lake Manyara. There are several types of grassland and forest habitat, and you will see hippos, giraffes, zebras and monkeys, you may see sleeping tree lions lounging in the branches, with their legs and paws dangling in the air and you will certainly see elephants as this park has the highest density of them in Africa at 7 per square km. Then there are all the birds: no less than 380 recorded species, making this one of the most densely radiated avian environments on Earth.
