After an early breakfast, you set off for Tarangire National Park, a scenic two-hour drive from Arusha.

You might see graceful giraffes, zebras grazing in herds, or even a lion lounging in the shade.

Rise with the sunrise and savor a fresh breakfast before heading to Lake Manyara National Park, a compact yet diverse gem nestled at the base of the Great Rift Valley. The short drive from Tarangire allows plenty of time for a full day of exploration. Lake Manyara’s varied landscapes, from lush forests to open savanna, create a haven for wildlife. Your guide points out the park’s famous tree-climbing lions, a rare sight, as well as elephants weaving through the trees and flamingos painting the lakeshore pink. With over 400 bird species, the park is a paradise for nature lovers, and your guide’s expertise ensures you don’t miss the subtle beauty of a hornbill or the flash of a kingfisher. After a picnic lunch by the lake, you continue your game drive, soaking in the park’s serene beauty. As evening falls, you return to a cozy campsite near Mto wa Mbu, where your Kiwoito cook prepares a delicious meal, blending local ingredients with familiar comforts, setting the stage for a restful night.

After breakfast, you drive to the crater’s rim, pausing to take in the breathtaking view of the 600-meter-deep caldera below. Descending into the crater, you’re immersed in a world teeming with life, over 30,000 animals call this natural amphitheater home. Your Kiwoito guide navigates the crater floor, helping you spot the elusive black rhino, grazing herds of wildebeest, and prides of lions basking in the morning light. The crater’s dense predator population, including hyenas and cheetahs, adds a thrill to every moment. A picnic lunch by Lake Magadi, surrounded by hippos and flamingos, feels like a scene from a dream.
