Lake Manyara National Park situated below the Great Rift Valley wall is famous for tree climbing lions. These lions in this park spend much time resting in trees probably to catch the breeze; to find a spot cooler than the ground below or may be even to keep out of the way of the buffalo and elephant herds.

Baboons, prolific within the park will, no doubt be the first species sighted. Their large troupes line the roadside allowing close -up photographs of the young riding their mother’s backs. Guinea fowl, silver-cheeked hornbills, crowned hawk-eagles and bushbuck are some of the animals one is also likely to see.

This stone-age site known as the “Cradle of Mankind” where in 1959 internationally renowned Dr.Louis Leaky unearthed the skull of the ‘Nutcracker Man’.

Olduvai Gorge offers an opportunity to walk on the footprints of our ancestors and pay deserving homage.
