3-Day Mid-Range Tarangire Lake Manyara Safari with Burunge Lodge
Why this Package
For a short sampler, this 3-day safari tour delivers both Tarangire’s giant tuskers and Lake Manyara’s bird-rich shallows. Experience the stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife of these iconic parks while enjoying the comforts of Burunge Tented Lodge, nestled in the Burunge Wildlife Management Area. This mid-range accommodation offers excellent value for guests who appreciate a serene atmosphere, complete with sunset decks and a refreshing pool.
During your stay, savor hearty meals that include buffet breakfasts, well-packed picnic lunches for your adventures, and relaxed dinners on the deck, where you can enjoy the gentle lake breezes. The lodge features tented rooms under thatch on raised platforms, equipped with en-suite bathrooms, mosquito nets, and fans, ensuring a comfortable retreat after a day of exploration.
Access to Tarangire is convenient, with the Sangaiwe Gate just a short drive away, allowing you to maximize your time in the park. The west side of Tarangire is known for its beautiful baobab trees and fewer vehicles, making it ideal for wildlife viewing. Early morning game drives are recommended to catch the park's activity at its peak.
After Tarangire, you will head to Lake Manyara, famous for its tree-climbing lions and vibrant birdlife. The transition between these two parks offers a rich tapestry of experiences, perfect for first-time visitors eager to witness the diversity of Tanzania's wildlife.
With a blend of adventure and comfort, this safari is perfect for those looking to combine their wildlife experience with a taste of Tanzania's stunning landscapes.

Book with the Right Tour Operator
Each safari company has its own strengths — some specialize in luxury safaris, some in mid-range, and some in budget trips. Their expertise depends on years of experience in specific price categories, the quality of their guides and vehicles, and the lodge partnerships they’ve built over time. None of this is visible on websites or forums, which is why NMT connects you directly with the operators best suited to your safari tier.
