Take a scheduled light aircraft flight to Manyara Airstrip. On arrival at the airstrip, you will be met by our representative who will transfer you to Lake Manyara Tree Lodge with game drive enroute. Lake Manyara National Park offers a wilderness experience in diverse habitats, from its Rift Valley soda lake to dense woodlands and steep mountainsides. Apart from a spectacular setting, the park is famous for its unusual tree-climbing lions and the vast elephant herds it was established to protect. The shores of the lake, encrusted with pink flamingo, attract more than 400 species of birds, many of them waterfowl or migrants. Enjoy morning and afternoon game drives through this diverse habitat to look for tree climbing lions. Explore areas of the park that cannot be reached by day visitors and are undisturbed by others. You will traverse a mosaic of acacia woodlands, grassy floodplains and tall forest in search of wildlife.

After breakfast, return to the local airstrip for your schedule flight to the famous Serengeti National Park. The Serengeti National Park is one of the world's most celebrated wilderness areas. Tanzania's oldest game reserve, it is renowned for the part it plays in the annual Great Migration - an epic, seasonal journey that is a deeply moving experience. Imagine vast expansive plains with endless horizons, seas of pale yellow grass rippling in the warm breeze, gnarled acacias twisting to the sky and vultures circling on thermals overhead. On this idyllic spot amid the Serengeti is where you will spend your days while staying at Siringit Serengeti Camp. Located near the Seronera Airstrip and just an hour’s drive from Nabi Hill, the gateway to the Serengeti National Park for guests arriving by road. The famous Hippo pool, the Serengeti Research Center and the departure point for balloon safaris are just around the corner.

After breakfast, transfer back to Seronera Airstrip for your return flight to Manyara. On arrival you will be met and helped transfer to Ngorongoro Melia Lodge via road.

The Ngorongoro Crater, once a gigantic volcano, is the largest intact caldera in existence. Nearly three million years old, it shelters one of the world's most beautiful wildlife havens. Black rhino are protected within its rim, giant tusked elephants wander the forests, black-maned lion stalk the grasslands and flamingo crowd the soda lakes.
