The Lake Manyara Day Safari is a full-day wildlife adventure from Arusha that takes you deep into one of Tanzania's most ecologically diverse national parks. Tucked beneath the towering 600-metre Rift Valley escarpment, Lake Manyara National Park packs an extraordinary range of habitats into a compact area — from dense groundwater forest and acacia woodland to open grasslands and the shimmering alkaline lake that gives the park its name. It's a park that surprised even seasoned safari-goers.
