4 Days Safari – Great Ngorongoro Crater

About this tour

Embark on a remarkable 4-day adventure with Timon Safaris as we take you on an unforgettable journey through Tanzania’s spectacular landscapes and diverse wildlife. We’ll explore three iconic destinations from the bustling city of Arusha: Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara National Park.

Our journey begins in Arusha, where you’ll meet our experienced and professional English-speaking driver guide. Settle into our comfortable and spacious 4×4 Toyota Land Cruiser, equipped with a pop-up roof for optimal game viewing. We’ll depart from the city, leaving behind the hustle and bustle, and head towards our first destination: Tarangire National Park.

As we enter Tarangire, be prepared to be mesmerized by the vast landscapes dominated by ancient baobab trees. This picturesque park is renowned for its large herds of elephants that roam freely across the plains. Keep your camera ready as we navigate the park, encountering zebras, wildebeests, giraffes, and various antelope species. Tarangire is also a bird lover’s paradise, with over 550 species recorded, including the stunning yellow-collared lovebird and the regal martial eagle.

Leaving Tarangire behind, we continue our adventure to the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater, often called the “Garden of Eden.” Descending into the crater, you’ll be greeted by a breathtaking vista of expansive grasslands, glistening lakes, and verdant forests. This natural wonder is home to an astonishing concentration of wildlife, making it a wildlife enthusiast’s dream come true.

From the captivating Ngorongoro Crater, our journey takes us to our final destination: Lake Manyara National Park. Nestled at the Great Rift Valley base, this hidden gem is known for its diverse ecosystems and unique wildlife encounters. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of the groundwater forests, where troops of playful monkeys swing through the trees, and colorful bird species flutter above.

Lake Manyara is famous for its tree-climbing lions, a sight that never fails to awe visitors. These majestic felines have adapted to their environment by ascending the branches of trees, providing a remarkable display of agility and strength. Witnessing a lion perched on a unit is an unforgettable experience and a highlight of your journey.

As we explore further, we’ll encounter herds of elephants grazing peacefully, graceful giraffes browsing on acacia leaves, and families of hippos wallowing in the lake’s shallow waters. Keep an eye out for the elusive leopards that hide within the dense foliage, and listen for the distinctive call of the tree hyrax echoing through the forest.

Prepare for an extraordinary 4-day expedition with Timon Safaris, where you’ll encounter the wonders of Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara National Park. Immerse yourself in the breathtaking landscapes, marvel at the diversity of wildlife, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
