Less touristic than the others, and with the lake its really special, we could spot some snakes. Also we saw the most lions here.
Lake Manyara is one of the many parks in Tanzania, quite small relatively, but the only place you can see Blue Monkey's! There are Lions, Vervet Monkeys, Baboons, Giraffe, Elephants Hippos, Waterbuck, Klipspringer, and many of the other plains game. It has areas that are jungle type forest and open plains by the water. This is where one can find the greatest variety of waterbirds, Flamingo's, several species of Ibis, and Heron's, with many other of the 300 plus species of bird that Tanzania has to offer. Naturally it is a bird watchers and photographers paradise.
I originally wasn’t expecting much from Lake Manyara, but I was genuinely surprised by how much we saw, beautiful views of the lake and the birds and monkeys were adorable. The star of the show there are the elephants who aren’t afraid to let you know that you’re jeep is too close.
I went to this park first out of tarangire, Serengeti and ngorogoro. It was definitely a good start to the safari. We didn't get lucky enough to see lions or anything like that. The reason I gave this 4 stars, is because compared to the rest, I think this is easily the worst park out of the big ones in tanzania. Luckily this was my first one so it was still pretty amazing to see so many animals up close. There were A LOT of monkeys and elephants. But I can see how if you do this last (it was last originally on my itenerary) you would be underwhelmed.
Lake Manyara surprised us with how green and beautiful it is, totally different from the other parks we visited. We saw elephants up close, lots of baboons, zebras and giraffes. The scenery is amazing, especially with the big lake and forests. Not as crowded as other parks, which made it feel peaceful and wild. A perfect day or last stop on a northern safari route.
