Description

Witness Tanzania's wonders in just 3 days! Explore Tarangire, a haven for elephants, and Manyara, home to tree-climbing lions. This all-inclusive adventure promises unforgettable wildlife encounters.
Day 1: The Outpost Lodge is an incredibly cosy, family run boutique hotel located in a leafy residential area of Arusha, a peaceful and lush oasis of calm in Tanzania’s largest tourism hub, complete with a swimming pool and a restaurant boasting culinary creations made with only the freshest and finest ingredients, served with a side of warm hospitality.

Just a stone's throw away from the vibrant Arusha city centre, and only an hour’s drive away from Kilimanjaro Airport, the Outpost Lodge is the perfect place to rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit amidst the harmonious blend of nature and city life after a long international flight before starting your safari in earnest the next day.

While in Arusha, you can either kick back and relax by the swimming pool or explore the bustling city full of friendly local people and vibrant sights and sounds.

Day 2: Tarangire National Park has a diverse amount of topography which allows a diverse amount of heterogenous species of plants and trees to grow, attracting a great number of herbivore species to the area, which is why Tarangire is "Home of the Elephants" in Tanzania, along with a myriad number of many other animal species, and their predators, which always follow stealthily in their wake, including lions, leopard, cheetah, jackals, hyena, and more.

Tarangire is an extremely popular place for tourists who wish to experience the Serengeti without paying the price of visiting the Serengeti since Tarangire even has a whole area which is named "The Mini Serengeti" which is where cheetah are often roaming the plains.

In Tarangire National Park, nine times out of ten you will see a leopard, cheetah, and lion, although obviously we cannot make any guarantees as these are wild animals and the national park is huge!

Overnight at Manyara Safari Lodge for another fantastic night of fun.

Day 3: Lake Manyara National park is a serenely beautiful vibrantly verdant forest teeming with wildlife, including tree-climbing lions, and an abundance of elephants which Ian Douglas Hamilton, the famous Scottish explorer and naturalist, studied extensively to provide the world with a great deal of elephant behavioural research.

Lake Manyara is an alkaline lake and often hosts thousands of flamingos, along with a diverse array of other bird life, along with a great number of hippos that love bathing in the shallow salty water of the lake where they spend their day quietly snoozing in a great big pod near the boardwalk, a long wooden walk way that lets visitors climb out of the safari car to stretch their legs and walk out across the lake without getting wet to get close as possible to the sleeping animals from a position of perfect safety.

Lake Manyara National Park is gorgeous and should not be missed!
