In the morning, after breakfast (around 7:30 AM), your safari guide will arrive at the hotel and inform the receptionist that he is waiting for you. After meeting your driver, you will travel to Lake Manyara National Park, and by 10:00 AM, you'll already be on your first safari!
The entire park is cut through with groundwater streams, creating a favorable environment for plant life, and as a result, attracting a variety of birds (including pink flamingos) and African forest animals.
Around lunchtime, you will visit the Maji Moto hot springs, where the driver will provide you with personal lunchboxes. After this stop, the safari will continue, and by evening, you will be transferred to your hotel to get ready for the amazing drive to Ngorongoro the next morning.
Additional notes:
This is your first day on safari, so we kindly ask that you pay special attention to the national park visitor rules and our company’s recommendations:
- It is strictly prohibited to exit the vehicle during the safari, except in designated areas. Violating this rule may result in significant fines for the company, including the revocation of its license.
- Off-road driving is also prohibited as it can cause irreparable damage to the delicate balance of the park's ecosystem.
- Smoking is allowed during the safari, but please be extremely careful when extinguishing and disposing of cigarette butts, as they are a frequent cause of fires in the savanna.
- We kindly ask that you do not put your feet on the seats or sit on the backs of the safari vehicle’s seats, as such behavior quickly damages the vehicle.
Thank you in advance for your understanding!
