Enjoy hotel pick up by Maasai mara safaris guide via 4*4 land cruiser, to start your day trip. After a brief introduction, drive to lake Manyara National Park. Lake Manyara National Park is known for the flamingos that inhabit the lake. During the wet season they inhabit the edges of the lake in flocks of thousands but they are not so present during the dry season. More than 400 species of birds inhabit the park and many remain throughout the year. Because of this Lake Manyara National Park is a good spot for bird watching. Visitors to the park can expect to see upwards of 100 different species of bird on any day. Leopards, Maasai lions, cheetahs, elephants, blue monkeys, dik-dik, gazelles, hippopotamus, Maasai giraffe, impala, zebras and many more wild animals inhabit this park and many can be seen throughout the year.
