3 Days Camping Safari Tanzania

• Distance:87 km
• Non Game drive time: 2 to 3 hrs.

3 Days Camping Safari Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater & Lake Manyara continues on this day as we take you to our beautiful Ngorongoro Crater. After breakfast at your campsite depart for Ngorongoro Crater. The driving is across the Great East African Rift Valley & along the high-lying farmland of Karatu, reach Ngorongoro gate for check-in before driving up to the Crater viewpoint for some nice pictures of the crater floor from the rim. Then descend into the Crater floor for a wonderful game drive (a picnic lunch will be served at the crater floor). Ngorongoro Crater is often defined as one of the wonders of the world, mistakenly called a Crater but it is rather the world largest unfolded volcanic caldera and a natural sanctuary for some of Africa’s densest animal populations.

It is one of the few places where the rare black rhinos can be observed in their natural habitat. The crater has about 2000 ft high walls and very few animals are migrating in and out of the crater. You can expect to see lions, Hyenas, Jackals, elephants, zebras, hippos, rhinos, antelopes and many bird species including flamingos. With a bit of luck the ‘Big Five’ can be spotted in one day of game drives. End up this day by driving up & out of Ngorongoro conservation on the way during sunset you will stop at Lake Manyara viewpoint for some nice picture of Lake Manyara & its forest from the edge of the Great East African Rift Valley then drive down to Migombani Public Campsite or similar close to Lake Manyara for dinner & overnight.

Overnight at Migombani Campsite or Similar close to Lake Manyara. All meals included.

• Distance to Lake Manyara:7 Minutes
• Distance back to Arusha:120 km – 2 to 3 hrs.

After breakfast at your campsite drive to Lake Manyara National Park for Game drives. Lake Manyara is a beautiful & ever-green park due to underground water streams that flows from the Great Rift Valley to the Lake.

Park’s varied habitats with plenty of water and fodder attract a wide variety of wildlife including herds of African elephants, buffalo, zebra, impala, hippos, giraffe and many antelopes. The famous Lake Manyara tree-climbing lions and other predators can be seen in this park. Massive but shallow soda lake is home to some colourful flamingos and other aquatic birds feeding on algae and other water creatures.

Late afternoon (Depending on your flight time) drive back to Arusha via Mto wa mbu town for overnight or drop off at the airport. (If you wish you can visit some Masai market on your way back to Arusha).

Join us again for this short but incredible 3 Days Tanzania Camping Safari where you visit the 3 great Northern Tanzania parks of Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater & Lake Manyara.
