5 Days Safari In Northern Tanzania

Day 1: Arrive to Kilimanjaro airport, picked by driver and then transfer to your hotel for overnight and breakfast.

Day 2: At 8:00 a.m. take the drive from Moshi (hotel) to Lake Manyara National Park takes about 3-4 hours.

When you approach it from the east, the Rift Valley escarpment looms on the horizon forming an impressive backdrop to the lake. In the tall trees of the ground water forest, monkeys leap from branch to branch, and on the escarpment, elephants stand in the shade. Other animals frequently seen are zebras, impalas, monkeys, giraffes, buffalos, hippos, and others. Overnight hotel

Day 3: After breakfast, drive to Ngorongoro Crater for a game drive inside the crater. This is the best place in Tanzania to see black rhino as well as prides of lion that include the magnificent black-manned males. There are lots of colorful flamingoes and a variety of water birds. Other game that you can see includes leopard, cheetah, hyena, other members of the antelope family, and small mammals. In the late afternoon drive to hotel

Day 4: After breakfast, drive to Tarangire National Park takes three hours.

Huge herds of wildebeest, zebras, elephants, elands and Oryx gather to stay in Tarangire until the onset of the rain when they migrate again to good grazing areas.
