Mto Wa Mbu, before the park
The first stop is Mto Wa Mbu, a village the listing describes as living from farming, with lanes of local food and craftspeople. It is the cultural part of the day, before entering the park.
Lake Manyara National Park
The listing presents it as a biosphere reserve since 1981, with varied habitats: semi-arid areas, marshes, acacia and baobab forests. It mentions elephants, crocodiles, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest and baboons, up to 400 bird species, and the tree-climbing lions. Nothing is guaranteed: the wildlife is free.
What is included
A Land Cruiser 4x4, an English-speaking guide, park entry, a picnic lunch, a bottle of water and a soft drink, a pair of binoculars per couple, and taxes. The guide tip is not included.
Who it suits
It is a full day with driving and safari. It suits you if Arusha is your base and you want a nearby park without spending the night there.
