Lake Manyara

Explore enchanting wildlife and stunning landscapes on a memorable safari adventure.

Lake Manyara National Park in Africa is a unique destination where visitors can witness tree-climbing lions and observe various wildlife, including the Big Five, pink flamingos, elephants, hippos, and cape buffalo.

Mto Wa Mbu, a nearby market town, offers a diverse cultural experience and is an excellent place to engage with Tanzanian art. For those seeking relaxation, a visit to the tranquil Maji Moto Hot Springs is a must-do activity.

Lake Manyara National Park and its surrounding areas are some of the few places in northern Tanzania where visitors can enjoy night game drives and canoe safaris.

With diverse landscapes, Lake Manyara National Park provides a compact safari experience that allows visitors to see various wildlife dramas, from the vibrant flamingoes to the fearsome lion.

Named after a seasonal alkaline lake at its heart, Lake Manyara National Park is the best place for canoeing safaris in the wet season and traditional game drives year-round. Labeled by Ernest Hemingway as “the loveliest I have seen in Africa,” Lake Manyara is a perfect starting or finishing point for the northern circuit safari adventure.

In addition to its massive flamingo population, Lake Manyara is possibly most famed for the tree-climbing lions who call this park home. Tree-climbing lions can be found in very few African parks and nowhere else in Tanzania; these agile predators cut a prominent figure as they lounge lazily in acacia trees.

Also, among other wild animals calling this park home are Africa’s most iconic animals, such as wildebeest, elephants, giraffes, zebra, and cape buffalo, as well as less famed but no less fascinating Kirk’s dik-dik and klipspringer.
