Itinerary
Pressed for time but longing for a true African safari? The 2-Day Tarangire & Lake Manyara Safari Tour is designed for travelers who want to witness Tanzania’s iconic wildlife and landscapes without a lengthy commitment. Journey into Tarangire National Park, famous for its dense elephant populations and thrilling predator sightings along the river. As grazers and predators gather during the dry season, you’ll witness one of nature’s grandest congregations.
Next, explore Lake Manyara, where pink flamingos put on a stunning display during mating season (June–September), and tree-climbing lions may be spotted lounging in the branches. The tour package includes expert guides, transport, and comfortable accommodation, making it a hassle-free, action-packed getaway.
What makes this trip stand out? It’s the chance to see a vast variety of wildlife in just two days—perfect for those with tight schedules or seeking a budget-friendly safari adventure.
day 1 - Arrival
You'll be collected from Kilimanjaro Airport (JRO), met by a representative of Altezza Travel, and transferred to a hotel in Arusha.
Note:
The hotel cost only includes breakfast.
Check-in starts at 2:00 PM.
day 2 - Tarangire
In the morning after breakfast (around 7:30 AM) your safari guide will arrive at the hotel and inform the receptionist that he is waiting for you. After meeting up with your driver you will travel to Tarangire National Park, and by 10:00 AM you will already be on your first safari!
In this park, you have the chance to see lots of wild Tanzanian animals (lions, buffalos, giraffes, zebras, etc.), but above all else, it is famous for its astonishing number of elephants, who typically tend to stay close to their drinking source, the Tarangire River.
You should be aware that this is wild nature, so the guide cannot make any guarantees on the presence of specific wild animals, but you can be sure he will do his best to find everything you're looking for! The Altezza team has its own radio channel that the drivers use to communicate to other guides and collaborate on searches for rare species.
At lunchtime, you will be provided a meal, after which the safari will continue. In the evening you will be transferred to the hotel located on the edge of the Ngorongoro volcanic crater.
day 3 - Lake Manyara
Early wake-up time, breakfast, and travel to Lake Manyara. The entire territory of this park is cut through with groundwater streams that provide a favorable environment for plants and, in addition, for a multitude of birds (including pink flamingos) and African forest animals.
Around lunchtime, you will visit the Maji Moto hot springs and the driver will provide you with personal lunchboxes. After this stop, the safari will continue, and by evening you will be transferred back to the hotel in Arusha.
day 4 - Departure
Rest in the hotel and transfer to the airport.
Note: Hotel check-out is at 11:00 AM. In case you need a late check-out because of an evening flight, you have the option to extend your hotel stay till 6:00 PM for an extra fee.
