Overview
Our Lake Manyara National Park Birding Day Tour visits this beautiful national park, located West from the town of Arusha, in Northern Tanzania.

We shall leave early and drive to Lake Manyara, a pristine soda lake in the Rift Valley. We shall enjoy the entire day here. Here we shall see lots of birds and during good time, lots of Greater and Lesser Flamingos are seen in the soda waters.

We shall enjoy birding along the moist forest, which is fed by many underground springs. The woodlands here are full of birds. We shall also visit he local swamps and Lake Manyara shores for more birds.
