Lake Manyara

$450.00$525.00

As far as lakes go, the one proclaimed to be “the loveliest I had seen in Africa” by Ernest Hemingway is none other than Lake Manyara. The 50km circuit along the base of the Rift valley escarpment provides the surroundings for an ideal Tanzanian safari experience.

Upon entering the gates, as you drive through the dense jungle, expect to see baboons numbering in the hundreds, blue monkeys watching in the mahogany trees, amidst bushbucks and forest hornbills. As you continue your journey, you may find buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, giraffes, lions, and elephants. It’s all here in Manyara.

Description

Boasting several different landscapes, Manyara is a must-see safari expedition. From the grassy floodplains to an alkaline lake, volcanic peaks that jut dramatically from the Maasai steppes, your camera will be tested as you relentlessly fire shot after shot. In addition to the wildlife mentioned above, you can see groups of banded mongoose and Kirk’s dik-dik among the acacia trees, foraging for vegetation.

For bird lovers, Manyara is perfect. More than 400 species have been recorded at the park, and it isn’t unreasonable to expect to see a quarter of those in just one day. At the very least, the pink flamingos will be very hard o miss, as they choose Manyara as a stop on their perpetual migration. They share the waters with pelicans, cormorants, and storks.
