Day 1: Arusha – Lake Manyara National Park – Mto wa Mbu Safari Tour
Pick up from your hotel / Airport and drive to the Lake Manyara National Park. The park, which stretches along the Rift Valley Escarpment, is named after the shallow alkaline Lake Manyara. The lake can be seen through a hue of pink, due to the large numbers of flamingos, seasonally flocking to its shores.
The more than 400 species of birds make this park a bird lovers’ paradise and on any given day 100 different species can be observed. Apart from the avian inhabitants, giraffes, elephants, monkeys, and antelopes can be spotted in the forest, acacia trees, and grasslands. With a bit of luck, you will be able to catch a glimpse of the famous tree-climbing lions, a somewhat uncommon trait for these large cats.

Day 2: Mto wa Mbu – Serengeti National Park
After breakfast, you will leave Mto wa Mbu and drive through the cooler highland region towards the Serengeti National park. The world-renowned Serengeti National Park, with its diverse landscape ranging from grass plains and dry savannah to marshy woodlands, is the stamping ground of many carnivorous predators and their prey.
The park is home to the largest animal migration in the world and depending on the season you will be able to witness this spectacular event unfold.
The herds of wildebeest and zebras journey in the short rainy season of November and December from the hills in the north to the southern plains before returning to the north during the longer rainy season of April to June.
The location of the migrating herds is dependent on the yearly rainfall, but your guide will know where the best vantage points for wildlife viewing are. The night will be spent on a campsite in the central Serengeti. Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner.
