SAFARI EXTENSION

Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara

The steep walls of the Ngorongoro Crater hinder the easy movement of animals. This coupled with the year round availability of good grazing and water in the crater result in a constant, large, population of wild animals. This is a game viewers paradise and by far the best destination for a short safari extension to any Northern Tanzanian mountain holiday.
During the dry season herds of Wildebeast, Zebras and Elephants congregate at the Tarangire River, making an interesting spectacle for wildlife viewing. The amazing Ngorongoro is a short drive away and is arguably one of the best places to stay on a short safari. The rocky slopes of the Manyara Escarpment form a dramatic backdrop.The park is noted for its birdlife with almost 400 different species recorded. It also has a high elephant population and is famous for its ‘tree climbing lions’. The forest contains a large variety of tree species creating a luxuriant, ‘jungle’ atmosphere in the northern areas of the park.
