You will leave Tarangire and go to Lake Manyara National Park after breakfast. The park of Manyara is modest but varied. Salt Lake, which is shallow, is the park's namesake. With over 500 different bird species and thousands of flamingos, it occupies a sizable portion of the park and floods and dries with the seasons. Monkeys, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, elephants, wildebeest, and, with any luck, lions relaxing in the trees can all be seen while exploring the park. The park is renowned for its varied topography, which includes baobab-dotted cliffs, woodlands teeming with primates, and broad grassy plains. We'll spend the night and dinner at Fig Tree Lodge.
