Migration Patterns
Lodges
and Hotels
3 Day Safari Option 1
Day 1: After
breakfast, we load up the vehicle for our safari, and drive away from
Moshi to Lake Manyara. By comparison with
Ngorongoro and Tarangire, Manyara is much smaller but no less scenic. It is thus
ideally suited as an introduction to safari touring. It is situated between the
escarpment formed by the rift valley and the soda water lake Manyara. It is an
ideal spot for bird lovers and is home to large groups of elephant as well as
the 'tree climbing lion". We overnight at the camp or lodge.
Day 2: After breakfast, continue our safari with a drive to and
tour the Ngorongoro. The Ngorongoro Crater
is the world's largest intact caldera, forming an incredible bowl shape
with sides of about 600m deep, and covering a distance of about 270km
square. Various habitats form a complete microcosm within the crater
floor, from grasslands to forest, swamps and lake Makat. As a result, it
is home to some 20 000 wild animals and although the animals move in and
out of the area consistently, the vegetation in the crater floor attracts
a wider range of animals and
is a source of ongoing food supply attracting the gazers, and thus,
predators as well. We will enjoy a picnic lunch in the crater and later,
proceed to the camp to spend the evening
Day
3
After breakfast
we head towards Tarangire National Park which
lies south of the Ngorongoro National Park. It covers about 2600 sq km of
floodplains, grassland and tall woodlands of acacia. It is also home to the
famous Baobab trees, hundreds of years old. During the dryer winter months of
July to September, a large number of migrant animals flock to the plains, which
tend to be less concentrated with game in the months of April and May when there
is more rain. Tarangire is well known for its elephants as large numbers
pour into the area around June, along with many of the buck species, the clown
of the animals, the wildebeest, and their companion, the zebra. The area is also
rich in bird life as well as a few resident lion who tend to remain all year
round. At the end of the day, interrupted only by watching game and taking in a picnic
lunch, we head back to our hotel in Moshi.
