Lake Manyara National Park Wildlife Safari

About Lake Manyara Day Trip

Often called the "hidden treasure of the Great Rift Valley," Lake Manyara National Park offers an astonishing variety of ecosystems within a compact area. From its lush, evergreen groundwater forests teeming with blue monkeys and baboons to the grassy floodplains and the expansive alkaline lake itself, the park provides incredible wildlife viewing.

Famous for its legendary tree-climbing lions, massive elephant herds, and flocks of pink flamingos painting the shoreline, Lake Manyara is a breathtaking sanctuary for photography, bird watching, and classic East African safaris.

Trip Details & Itinerary

After breakfast at your hotel in Moshi, your expert driver-guide from Trekking Marshals Adventure will pick you up for a scenic drive along the base of the Great Rift Valley escarpment to Lake Manyara National Park.

Begin your game drive beneath the dense canopy of the groundwater forest, keeping an eye out for primates and forest-dwelling birds. As you break out into the open floodplains, enjoy views of giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, and elephants against the dramatic backdrop of the rift escarpment. Following a picnic lunch near the hippo pool, spend the afternoon exploring further habitats before departing for your comfortable evening return to Moshi.
