Pick up from Arusha and drive to Lake Manyara National Park arriving within route game viewing drive with box lunches. Established in 1960 making the second oldest National Park together with Arusha National Park. Ernest Hemmingway called Lake Manyara the loveliest lake he had seen in Africa. And he might have been right. Stretched out at the base of the mighty Rift Valley escarpment, with shorelines coloured pink by thousands of flamingos and great game viewing in a small area, it is a true African gem indeed. Dinner and overnight at Kudu Campsite (Karatu)
