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.
