The shallow and alkaline Lake Manyara covers a large area of the park and it is the seasonal home to thousands of flamingos – an awesome (pink) sight. However more than 500 other bird species are also found here as well as some wonderful mammals. Troops of monkeys live in the forests, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras and wildebeests on the grassy plains and elephants and lions in the acacia woodlands. From the open roof of the vehicle you will be able to watch the animals and absorb the landscape. After an extensive game drive and a picnic lunch, you will leave the park to make your way to the cooler regions of the Ngorongoro highlands. You will overnight at the Kizumba Campsite.

A perfectly organised safari experience

5.00It was such a wholesome experience from start to finish. Our 3 day safari was perfectly organised and our tour guide was excellent, friendly and knowledgable. The accommodation was great, set on the edge of Ngorongoro National Park with stunning views. The safari itself was the unforgettable experience and we saw a wonderful variety of animals. A thoughtfully run safari and an experience I will never forget.
Fantastic, Fun and Full Adventure

5.00My experience with our tour operator was wonderful. I travelled to Zanzibar and Tanzania with a friend and the whole time, even outside of our safari experience, the team were helpful, attentive, friendly and professional making the whole trip safe and enjoyable. The service they offered was well above what we paid; most definitely great value. We were picked up and supported through each stage of our adventure. We visited the Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara spotting some of the “big five” from day one! Over our three-day safari, as well as seeing the beautiful animals in their natural habit, our guide taught us all about the land and plants, mining, art and sculpture, and the diversity of the people and cultures. I will never forget the people we met, Davies, Kisali, and Sayid and how well they took care of us. From the moment I got home I have, and will continue to, recommend this wonderful tour group to colleagues, friends, and family.
Wonderful, breathtaking experience!

5.00Where do I start with this experience!?… It blew my mind with the amount of things we saw and learnt. From the very start of planning this trip we did not know what to expect but all we knew was that we wanted to visit Tanzania and go on a safari. Debating on whether to do the 1x day safari trip to the other national parks or do the 3x days we opted for the 3x days visiting Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara. We saw all the big fives along the national parks. Each experience was unique. Ngorongoro crater will always have a special place in my heart! Davies has helped us plan this whole trip very well! As we were 2x female friends travelling together; we were concerned with our safety and how safe the whole trip would be. His attentiveness and assurance assured us that all is ok and the trip was planned in a such a way to best suit the experience we wanted to experience. Pairing us with our lovely guide Kisali who entertained us and taught us a lot throughout the whole trip from the wild animals to the trees and plants we saw along our journey. We also had a lovely unforgettable encounter with the Maasai tribe visiting their ‘Emanyata’. Learning from the way they live to their traditions and dancing rituals. It was truly a wonderful experience. We also got to experience and learn how Tanzanite stone is mined and graded. To top it off we stayed in a wonderful accommodation ‘Farm of Dreams Lodge’. Top luxury experience with lovely staff members who made our stay very comfortable and welcoming. Truly felt like a family. ♥️ We want to thank both Davies and Kisali for this beautiful experience. We truly miss the whole experience and hope that one day we will be back! Until then, Baadaye and Asante Sana Familia! Eman and Elizabeth
Unforgettable

5.00What an amazing experience! Davies made all the arrangements so everything went smoothly. The transfer from the airport, great lodges. Visting the wildparcs was a dream. Also because of our guide Steven, who did everything he could, to show us everything and tell us everything about the flora and fauna we saw. A very friendly man and nice to have around for three days. We will never forget this!
Best tour operator of Tanzania!

5.00Davies provisies swift responses to all my questions. The price was very reasonable and most important: The Safari was amazing. The Ngorongoro Carter was very impressive and on our first day in Tarangire we spotted 4 out of 5 Big Five (we only missed the Rhino) Highly recommended!
