  • Understanding the typical daily lives of the human inhabitants at Lake Manyara. Witness the unusual tree-climbing lions!
  • The ‘endless plains’ of Serengeti, a stunning landscape and surely the world’s most celebrated national park with an incomparable range of predators and their intended prey: see leopard and cheetah, antelope and zebra.
  • Ngorongoro’s awe-inspiring crater, a collapsed volcano some 12 miles across, with its incredible year-round display of wildlife. A truly inspiring setting which plays host to lion and elephant, rhino, buffalo, hippo as well as many other species and endless birdlife.

Tarangire National Park

Tarangire National Park is a national park in northern Tanzania. The Tarangire River flows through the park, which constantly carries water, so that many animals migrate from dry regions during the annual dry season from July to October, resulting in the highest density of wildlife in Tanzania after the Ngorongoro Crater. The landscape consists of grasslands, especially on both sides of the river, open tree savannah, dense scrub and woodland, and hills and crags with sparse vegetation. Baobab trees are found with above-average frequency. Among others, zebra, wildebeest, impala, waterbuck, lesser kudu, African buffalo, giraffe, hippo, warthog, lion, cheetah, leopard, hyena and African wild dog live in Tarangire National Park.

Central Serengeti (Seronera Region)

The Serengeti has some of East Africa’s finest game areas. Besides being known for the great migration, the Serengeti is also famous for its abundant large predators. The ecosystem is home to over 3,000 Lions, 1,000 African leopards and the East African cheetah is also present here.
The name “Serengeti” refers to the word “seringit” in the Maasai language, meaning “endless plains”. The Serengeti is one of the best places to observe prides in their natural environment. Approximately 70 large mammal and 500 bird species are found there. This high diversity is a function of diverse habitats, including riverine forests, swamps, kopjes, grasslands, and woodlands. Blue wildebeest, gazelles, zebras, and buffalos are some of the commonly found large mammals in the region.

Northern Serengeti (Mara Region)

The northern Serengeti reaches all the way to the Kenyan border and the famous Mara River. It is therefore greener and more quiet in comparison to the southern Serengeti plains. The area stretches from the Lobo Hills southwards to Seronera and is typified by green rolling hills, which is a pleasant diversion from the much flatter southern plains. It is an ideal habitat to spot wildlife due to its versatile, green environment, its rivers and its acacia tree forests.

Ngorongoro is a crater in Tanzania on the edge of the Serengeti. It was formed when a volcano collapsed at this point. The crater floor is at about 1700 m and the side walls are between 400 and 600 meters high, so that the crater rim is at about 2300 m. The diameter of the crater is about 20 kilometers.

About 25.000 wild animals populate the crater. It also offers the highest density of predators in Africa. The number of zebras, buffaloes, wildebeests, antelopes and gazelles is particularly large. They are hunted by lions, hyenas and leopards. There are also elephants in the crater and, unusually in this area, hippos. Between 10 and 15 endangered black rhinos remain. The great herd migration in the Serengeti also passes through the Ngorongoro Crater.
