An African Safari for Two to Tanzania for Nine Days & Eight Nights, Including Scenic Sightseeing of Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Ten Game Drives, Professional Tour Director, and Touring by Motor Coach (Land Only)
An African Safari is an unforgettable travel experience that will touch something deep within you and take your breath away - the vast countryside, the intriguing eco-systems, flora and fauna are simply awe-inspiring. Travel to Tanzania to see the Savannah, the Serengeti, and so much more! You?ll visit famous national parks and landmarks, participate in game drives, a nature walk, visit a Maasai Village, and see dozens of animals, including wildebeest, eland, zebra, Cape Buffalo, elephant, rhino, giraffes, gazelle, lion, flamingos and cheetah.
The Tarangire National Park?s river makes it a great place for game viewing year round. Located at the base of the Rift Valley escarpment, Lake Manyara National Park is ecologically diverse, with groundwater forests, grassy plains, and the alkaline Lake Manyara itself. The famous Serengeti National Park, known for its annual wildebeest migration, attracts visitors from around the world. As you make your way westward, you?ll visit the Olduvai Gorge, commonly referred to as the “Cradle of Mankind” because it is where remains of early hominids and fossilized hominid footprints estimated to be around 3.7 million years old were found. Continue on to the Ngorongoro Crater for your tenth game drive, where you will have your best chance of seeing the rare Black Rhinoceros. Views from the rim of this 2,000 foot deep crater are stunning, especially at sunrise and sunset!
