Lake Manyara Tree Lodge HIGH This is the only lodge in the park and it is located in beautiful forest about 45 kilometres from the main gate. It has been designed as a treehouse. The large rooms are on a wooden platform with a verandah and some rooms are built around existing trees. The lodge has a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere.Kirurumu MIDKirurumu is a permanent tented lodge set high on the edge of the Rift Valley with spectacular views out over Tanzania. The open-sided dining room and bar make the most of the view! Arusha National ParkSet between the towering peaks of Mt. Meru and snow-capped Kilimanjaro, the park comprises lush montane forest, the beautiful Momella Lakes and the tranquil craters of Ngurdoto and Mt. Meru. There are few parks with such variety. The Momella Lakes host a variety of water birds including fl amingos, ibises, spoonbills, ducks and a rich variety of waders, plus common waterbuck and Kirk's dik dik loiter beside their drinking pools. From lookout points on the forested rim of the Ngurdoto Crater, you might see warthogs and buffalo as they feed on the grasslands of the crater fl oor, whilst monkeys and more elusive creatures hide in the forests. Mount Meru Game Lodge HIGH The lodge is nestled amongst a grove of enormous old mango trees.

The game sanctuary here provides a safe haven to eland, ostrich, waterbuck, zebra, small carnivores and of course an enormous variety of birdlife.Tarangire National ParkTarangire National Park, dominated by the Tarangire River, is one of the best-kept secrets in Africa. It is a superb wildlife destination and particularly welcoming when added on after the busy 'northern circuit' of Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. The river attracts enormous herds of elephants and the landscape is a rich and varied mix of trees, plains, swamps and rocky outcrops. Elephants are virtually guaranteed here and predators (including wild dog) hunt the herds of buffalo, Grant's and Thompson's gazelle, Burchell's zebra, giraffe and warthog. The area is excellent for birds of prey and provides superb habitats for hundreds of other species. Tarangire Treetops HIGH Tarangire Treetops is located just outside the park boundary. It is a great place for resident elephants. The ten treehouse style rooms are large and airy and some of them are built on stilts allowing the wildlife to pass freely underneath. The central area built around a giant Baobab overlooks a beautiful waterhole.Tarangire River Camp MIDTarangire River Camp is near the main entrance to Tarangire in a fantastic position overlooking a tributary of the Tarangire River where you can sit and take in your surroundings with views across to the park.
