8 Days Good Value Tanzania Wildlife Safari Adventure

Leaving the camp after a relaxed breakfast, we drive north passing some Maasai villages as your guides give the orientation of Tanzania people and culture. Before long you will reach the village of Mto Wa Mbu. This village is unique in Tanzania since it is home to over 120 different tribes from across Tanzania and forms a colorful mix of languages and customs. Your walking guide will take you to rice and banana plantations, a local beer factory, a school, and a carving factory. Discover the traditional way of life of the villagers, followed by a local lunch, then proceed to the campsite.

The next day after breakfast enter Lake Manyara National Park. Nestled under the Great Rift Valley, this is a small game area with the biggest diversity of habitat than the big Serengeti National Park. A spectacular part of Africa’s Great Rift Valley, Lake Manyara’s rich variety of natural habitats are set around the soda lake, itself a haven for clouds of pink flamingos and other water birds. This is a paradise for birding enthusiasts! The forested valleys and open savannah plains support a large elephant population as well as giraffe, buffalo, and many antelope species. There are fewer predators but topping the list are Lake Manyara’s lions, famous for their habit of climbing trees.
