Highlights

Lake Manyara National Park

Ngorongoro Crater

Tarangire National Park

Day 1

Tarangire National Park - Baobabs and elephant herds

Are you ready for your first safari day? After breakfast, your driver-guide picks you up and you begin your journey to Tarangire National Park. During the drive, your guide gives a short safari briefing and answers any questions you may have — this is where your story truly begins.

As you enter the park, huge baobab trees and herds of elephants dominate the landscape. Giraffes browse calmly, while zebras and wildebeest graze across the plains. With some luck, you might spot lions resting in the shade or even a leopard hidden in the branches.

Lunch is enjoyed at a scenic picnic site inside the park. In the afternoon, you continue your game drive, your guide adapts the route to your pace and interests, whether you prefer to cover more ground or spend time observing wildlife at your own rhythm.

At the end of the day, you drive to Heart & Soul Lodge. Relax on the terrace with a drink while the sun sets over the valley and the sounds of the African night slowly surround you.

Day 2

Ngorongoro Crater - Wildlife in a natural amphitheatre

Today you descend into the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater, one of Tanzania’s most remarkable safari locations. Formed millions of years ago by a collapsed volcano, the crater is now home to a dense concentration of wildlife in a spectacular setting.

As you drive across the crater floor, you’ll encounter a wide variety of animals – from grazing zebras and wildebeest to elephants and buffalo. With some luck, you may also spot the endangered black rhino, one of the rarest species in East Africa. Hippos can often be seen wallowing in the water, while lions rest in the grasslands nearby.

The crater’s enclosed nature makes it a natural amphitheater for wildlife viewing, with dramatic scenery at every turn. Your guide will explain the unique ecology of this area and point out fascinating animal behaviors. After a picnic lunch at a scenic spot inside the crater, you continue your exploration before returning to your lodge in the afternoon.

Day 3

Lake Manyara - Flamingos and tree-climbing lions

Today you drive to Lake Manyara National Park, a compact but incredibly diverse reserve at the foot of the Rift Valley escarpment. In the forested entrance you’ll find troops of baboons and playful blue monkeys, while further on the open plains stretch out towards the shimmering alkaline lake. Here, wildebeest, zebras, and—season permitting—thousands of flamingos bring the landscape to life.

Are you looking for a unique and immersive way to experience the natural beauty of Tanzania's Lake Manyara National Park? Our walking safari is the perfect option for those who want to get up close and personal with the park's incredible wildlife and breathtaking landscapes.

In the afternoon we will take you back to Arusha or the airport. Your safari holiday in Tanzania has come to an end. A journey filled with wildlife, culture, and relaxation. As we like to say: Your safari, your story. The memories are yours to take home and share.

And while the journey ends here, our service never does. At Sunset Adventure Safari we believe that high-quality service makes all the difference. We respond quickly to every email, we are always available if you need us, and we adjust every detail of your itinerary until it feels just right.
