3-Day Upper Mid-Range Tarangire and Lake Manyara Safari with Lake Burunge
Why this Package
In this 3-day safari tour, experience the contrast between the dry-season herds of Tarangire and the tree-climbing lions of Lake Manyara, all while enjoying the comforts of Lake Burunge Baobab Tented Lodge. Nestled in the Burunge WMA, this lodge offers a unique blend of luxury and value, making it perfect for travelers seeking a lodge-style experience with stunning sunset views over the lake.
Your stay begins with a night in Tarangire, where you can witness the majestic elephants and iconic baobabs that the park is famous for. The lodge features thatched tented rooms on platforms, complete with en-suite bathrooms and verandas overlooking the bush or lake. After a day of exploration, enjoy buffet breakfasts with hot options, picnic lunches for your adventures, and delightful dinners that cater to families.
On your second day, venture to Lake Manyara, known for its diverse birdlife and breathtaking views of the Rift Valley escarpment. The Ngorongoro Coffee Lodge serves as your base for this leg of the journey, offering generous cottages with fireplaces and a real pool for relaxation. With early hot/cold breakfasts and picnic lunches, you’ll be well-fueled for your wildlife encounters.
Both lodges provide easy access to their respective parks, ensuring you maximize your game drive experiences. The early morning departures allow you to be on the park tracks at first light, rewarding you with quiet sunsets and the chance to spot wildlife in their natural habitat. This itinerary is ideal for first-time visitors or those looking to combine their safari experience with a trip to Kilimanjaro or Zanzibar.
Mix of upper mid-range and luxury Tanzania Safari
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.
