LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK DAY TRIP

FROM $1918 USD* / 24/7 SERVICE / 11 DAYS

LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK DAY TRIP

On this Day trip we will visit Lake Manyara National Park. Lake Manyara National Park is a smaller, more varied park than the other parks as its much greener, foresty and has a huge lake of course which bears the same name. The lake takes up most of the space of the national park. Next to that the park gains fame by the hippo pool, where many hippo’s spend their days and the diversity of its landscapes. Not to forget about the thousands of Flamingo’s that migrate here each year. The day trip starts with an early morning departure from Arusha (or Moshi). From here we drive straight to Lake Manyara National Park, which will take about two and a half hours

Highlights

You’ll be driving in a big 4×4 landcruiser with pop-up roof for 360 degrees vision. During the day trip in Lake Manyara National Park you might encounter animals like hippo’s flamingo, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, warthog, impala, buffalo, baboons, blue velvet monkeys and on a lucky day you might even find a lion relaxing in a tree. Of course there’s many more wildlife waiting to be spotted!

Driving through the park is a nice and adventureous experience after all the great plains and stretched out landscapes. Here you might come really close to the animals, without you even knowing! So keep your eyes and ears open!

During the wet seasons (November/December and March to May), the lake itself can cover up to 60% of the Park’s total area – a vast 231 km². During these months, the lake’s high alkaline waters attract a variety of migratory waterbirds, including the famous flocks of pink flamingos.

After our lunchbreak we will head our for another safari and try to find the animals that we might not have spotted yet, so we can cross as many animal-experiences as possible of our list. Af the end of the day, we will get ready for the drive back Arusha.

*This Day trip is both possible as a private excursion or it is possible to join a group. If you’d like to join a group. Please send us an enquiry and we will find a group for you to join!
