1 Day

Welcome to Timon Safaris! We invite you to join us on a thrilling day trip to the breathtaking Lake Manyara National Park in the magnificent country of Tanzania. This one-day safari is an exquisite blend of nature, wildlife, and culture, making it an ideal choice for adventure seekers and nature lovers.

Lake Manyara National Park is a stunning ecosystem at the base of the Great Rift Valley’s eastern escarpment. The park is renowned for its diverse habitats, from lush groundwater forests and grassy plains to alkaline Lake Manyara. The park is a haven for birdwatchers, with over 400 species of birds documented.

Our customized 4×4 Toyota Land Cruiser offers unbeatable views and comfort as we journey through the park. Fitted with a pop-up roof, it is perfect for unobstructed wildlife viewing and photography. The vehicle’s Wi-Fi and refreshment provisions ensure a comfortable and connected journey throughout the safari.

Travelling with a professional English-speaking guide, you’ll gain insights into the flora and fauna that make Lake Manyara an exceptional safari destination. The focus will be to share fascinating details about the animals and their behaviours, and upon request, we can provide guides fluent in other languages.

One of the highlights of Lake Manyara National Park is the impressive population of elephants and tree-climbing lions. Seeing these majestic lions lounging in acacia trees is a spectacle to behold and not something you will encounter on every safari.

A mid-day break will allow you to savour a delightful lunch in the wilderness. After lunch, you can indulge in a hot tea or coffee, perfect for rejuvenating and preparing for the afternoon’s adventures.

An optional addition to this thrilling day trip is the Lake Manyara Treetop Walkway. Suspended above the park’s beautiful forest canopy, this walkway offers an unparalleled perspective on the park’s unique ecosystem and an adrenaline-fueled adventure.

Another optional activity worth considering is the Cultural Tourism Maasai Village Visit. This enriching cultural experience offers a chance to meet the Maasai people and learn about their traditions, dances, and daily life—a perfect way to understand Tanzanian culture better.

On this safari, you’ll not only be traversing the Tanzanian wilderness, but you’ll also be contributing to its preservation. The fees in your package directly support the conservation efforts of the national parks, making your journey a responsible and ethical adventure.

As your safari concludes, you’ll return home with priceless memories of wild landscapes, abundant wildlife, and an enriching cultural experience. However, this day trip is merely a taste of Tanzania’s wonders. We offer a range of safaris at Timon Safaris to cater to every taste and budget.

While our package covers all essential aspects of your safari, personal expenses, tips, and flights are excluded. To ensure a smooth and worry-free experience, we recommend securing comprehensive travel insurance before embarking on your safari.
