strangler figs. We overnight at the beautiful Lake Manyara
Serena Lodge, perched almost 2,000 feet above Lake Manyara. (B,L,D)

Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast we enjoy a game drive in Lake Manyara
National Park before we drive to the Ngorongoro Conservation
Area. Explore Ngorongoro Crater, where an abundance of food and
fresh water make it possible for 30,000 large mammals to live.
This is the only place in East Africa where one can easily
observe a natural population of black rhino. Our home for the

located on the crater’s rim. (B,L,D Daily)
