After breakfast we drive through Maasai country to Tarangire National Park and there we will do our first game drive. Look forward to animal observations with zebras, giraffes, warthogs (Pumba) and various species of gazelles. Tarangire National Park is one of the most popular and beautiful national parks in Tanzania.

The heart of the park is the Tarangire River, which also forms the landscape with swamps and extensive tree savannahs of the large park (2,600 square meters the size of Luxembourg). We will have our lunch (lunch) close to nature in Tarangire National Park, followed by further game drives in the afternoon. Tarangire National Park is known for its abundance of distinctive and impressive African baobab trees (baobab trees) and for the dramatic interactions between predators and prey on the river streams of Tarangire National Park with its own small migratory movements of wildlife within the park.

In Tarangire National Park, elephants, eland, gemsbok, lesser kudu and many other animal species can be observed. Another special feature of the national park is the tree-climbing pythons(Seasonal) and over 400 bird species such as the widespread hornbill, partridges, pelicans, eagles, vultures and various types of herons. Due to the year-round high animal population, there is also a good number of lions here, which makes an encounter very likely. We stay overnight in the outside the National Park.

Accommodation at Lake Manyara Serena Lodge, Full board.

Lake Eyasi is situated at the south-western end of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area between Great Rift Valley Eyasi escarpment and Kidero mountains, just 133 km (95 miles) west of Lake Manyara. Lake Eyasi cover an area of about 1,050 square km (400 square miles).

The lake is as all the other lakes in the Rift Valley a soda lake. Lake Eyasi, which has one principle spring, the Sibiti River, is enclosed with walls consisting of purple lava. The main attraction of Lake Eyasi are the Hadzabe bushmen, the indigenous inhabitants and the last community of hunters and gatherers in Africa. Lake Eyasi is their homeland for over 10,000 years. They are still holding to their traditional way of life, hunting and gathering different kinds of fruits and honey.

The Hadzabe live in caves and they don’t wear any kind of clothes but rather skin to cover the private parts. Their community is endangered, because most of their land has been taken away from them for commercial production and they are forced to join the civilization.

Lake Eyasi is also inhabited by another bushmen community, the Tindiga. This community is also a hunters and gatherers community, but they are tired of this kind of live and want to join the civilized world. They have been living for centuries from the forest and its products, hunting animals such as monkeys. The Tindiga people don’t have permanent houses and avoid buildings with iron sheets, because they believe they cause blindness.
