Lake Manyara National Park and Hadzabe Tribe Visit
Your guide will meet you at your hotel, give you a short briefing regarding the safari, then you will travel westwards to the small Lake Manyara National Park. The park with its shallow alkaline lake is known for its over 400 bird species, primate-filled forests (look out for the long-tailed Guenon monkeys), and grassy plains. A large area of the park is covered by the alkaline Lake Manyara which is home to flocks of flamingoes and other water birds. Apart from elephants, you might also spot giraffes, hippos, wildebeests, and impalas while the forests near the lake are teeming with noisy groups of monkeys and baboons. From the pop-up roof of the safari vehicle, you will be able to absorb the sights and sounds of nature. There is an option (at an additional charge) of viewing nature from the Manyara Treetops Walkway, a 370 suspended walking bridge hovering up to 18m above the forested area. In the late afternoon, we will take you to your evening’s accommodations near the remote Lake Eyasi.
Meals included: Picnic lunch and dinner
The agony of the pre-dawn wake-up call will soon be replaced with excitement as after a quick bite and cup of coffee/tea we head out to find the Hadzabe Tribe. This is one of the last true hunter-gatherer tribes left in the world. We will follow them as they go on a hunt looking for their meal. They are very opportunistic, hunting anything from rats and birds to giraffes. Using bow and arrow (poison-tipped for large game) they are very proficient hunters. They are also experts at gathering wild honey and foraging for edible roots. After the hunt, you will get a chance to sing and dance with them and try your skills at archery and making fire without matches. Their language which incorporates tongue clicks is very interesting to hear. After the tour, we will have a brunch before heading back to Arusha/Kilimanjaro Airport/Moshi by the mid-afternoon.
