After breakfast leaves the camp and proceed to Lake Manyara National Park for a day of game viewing, an area Hemingway described as, “the loveliest I had seen in Africa”. Lake Manyara National Park is a naturalist’s delight thanks to its diverse environments. Ranging from the underground-water forest and acacia woodlands to grasslands, swamps, marshes, and hot springs, the park is simply packed with wildlife. Over 400 species of birds have been recorded, including large flocks of flamingos and migratory water birds. Manyara’s forests ring with the call of monkeys and birds while its acacia woodlands are home to Manyara’s famous tree-climbing lions and slow-strolling elephants. The park is also home to the largest troop of baboons in Africa, zebra wildebeest, giraffe, hippos, leopard, and impala, and in the late evening, drive to your lodge for dinner and overnight.

This entire day is set aside for game drives in the Serengeti. The Serengeti, the habitat of an abundance of wildlife such as impala, buffalo, crocodile, and hippo, is more well-known for its great migrating herds of zebra, antelope, and wildebeest. The animals’ trek is determined by the rainfall and varies from year to year. In November and December, the animals move from the northern region, dominated by woodlands and hills, to the grassy plains of the south. During the longer rainy season from April to June, they return to the central. Apart from the migrating herds, we may have the opportunity to see the resident predators, leopard, cheetah, and lion, fulfilling their role in the circle of life.

After an unforgettable day, we will return to our carefully selected partner-tented camp for relaxation, dinner, and our overnight sleep on The Endless Plain. Dinner and overnight at Serengeti Tortillis tented camp.

The animals roam freely through the unfenced reserves, offering us an uninterrupted game-viewing experience.
Arriving at the edge of the crater, we have our first glimpse of what awaits us the following day – glistening streams, open grassland, and a myriad of animals.

You will spend the day exploring the crater floor, stopping to picnic on the grasslands amidst the grazing herds. Formed by a massive volcanic eruption, the world’s largest intact and unflooded caldera provides a year-round home to an astonishing 25,000 large mammals, including black rhino, wildebeest, and zebra, along with Africa’s densest concentrations of hyena.
