3 Days Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and Ngorongoro Safari from Zanzibar-Overview
As a well-experienced tour operator company, we are delighted to present an immersive and meticulously planned 3 Days Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and Ngorongoro Safari From Zanzibar
The following is an in-depth overview of these magnificent destinations, focusing on their locations, how to get there from Zanzibar, their significance, climate, and the best times to visit.
Tarangire National Park
Tarangire National Park is located in northern Tanzania, approximately 118 kilometers southwest of Arusha.
To reach Tarangire from Zanzibar, you’ll take a short flight from Zanzibar’s Abeid Amani Karume International Airport (ZNZ) to Arusha Airport (ARK), followed by a 2-3 hour drive to the park.
Tarangire is renowned for its diverse wildlife and stunning landscapes, characterized by vast savannahs, ancient baobab trees, and the Tarangire River, which serves as a vital water source for animals.
The park is especially famous for its large elephant herds, which can be seen in impressive numbers during the dry season.
The climate in Tarangire is typically warm and dry, with two distinct seasons. The dry season runs from June to October, while the wet season spans from November to May.
Temperatures are generally mild, ranging from 20°C to 30°C (68°F to 86°F).
The best time to visit Tarangire is during the dry season (June to October), when wildlife is most concentrated around water sources, making game viewing particularly rewarding.
Lake Manyara National Park
Lake Manyara National Park is a hidden gem, offering diverse ecosystems, stunning scenery, and rich wildlife.
The park is known for its tree-climbing lions, large flocks of flamingos that inhabit the lake, and the lush groundwater forest.
It provides a unique safari experience with both terrestrial and aquatic habitats.
The climate is similar to Tarangire, with a warm and humid environment. The dry season (June to October) is ideal for game viewing, while the wet season (November to May) brings lush vegetation and vibrant birdlife.
The dry season (June to October) is the prime time for wildlife viewing, but the wet season also offers spectacular bird watching and beautiful, green landscapes.
Ngorongoro Conservation Area
The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Africa’s most iconic safari destinations. The highlight is the Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest inactive volcanic caldera, home to a dense concentration of wildlife, including the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino).
The area’s significance extends beyond wildlife, encompassing rich Maasai cultural heritage and archaeological sites like Olduvai Gorge.
The climate in Ngorongoro is cooler compared to the other parks due to its higher altitude. Temperatures range from 10°C to 25°C (50°F to 77°F).
The dry season (June to October) is cool and comfortable, while the wet season (November to May) can be cold, especially in the evenings and early mornings.
The dry season (June to October) is ideal for game viewing, as animals are more easily spotted in the open terrain. However, visiting during the wet season (March to May) offers fewer crowds and a lush, green landscape.
Summary
Embarking on the 3 Days Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and Ngorongoro Safari from Zanzibar offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience Tanzania’s diverse wildlife and breathtaking landscapes.
