Lake Manyara Day Trip
Customize Your Adventure, Create Lifelong Memories
Tour Overview
A spectacular day trip that includes wildlife-viewing and an opportunity to learn about the everyday lives of Tanzanian villagers. On the edge of the Rift Valley, Lake Manyara National Park is small, but its diverse eco-systems pack in a huge variety of animal and birdlife. It is rightly famous for its tree-climbing lions, but also for its boisterous baboons! A riot of colour is provided by the birdlife here.
Tour Itinerary
You leave you’re accommodation after breakfast with a picnic lunch packed safely away. The Rift Valley landscape draws close as your guide heads for Lake Manyara National Park, the smallest national park on the northern circuit but one capable of delivering fantastic game viewing. Home to Tanzania’s biggest baboon population, Lake Manyara supports large numbers of buffalo, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, elephants and a host of bird’s species most evident after the long rains when the Lake attracts thousands of pelicans who come to feed on the abundance of fish in the Lake together with flamingoes feeding on minute algae, but Lake Manyara is known for the famous tree-climbing lions which can be seen hanging on acacia trees. You will have time to enjoy your picnic, included as part of your day tour. At 16.00, we set off from the park to reach Arusha by 18:00 hours and you will be dropped at your accommodation or place of residence.

Hear from our happy travelers
louis V2025-08-08Verified Inoubliable Expérience inoubliable grâce à Regan et Saidi qui ont toujours été à l’écoute et de bon conseil pour nous !Merci pour tout Rosh Expéditions. Curious104008244282025-06-09Verified All the things you need from a guide. We (us 2) went for a 4-day hike on Mount Meru. We were picked up on time and everything was well organized.Regan is a good guide with lots of experience, and has a good sense of humor. Regan is the guide of a team which consists of friendly and helpful people who will make you feel comfortable throughout the trip. We experienced this once one of us got very ill due to a bite of a tick. Although we were unfortunate to cancel the trip, Regan and his team made Sure we got down well and safe and made our way back to Arusha. Not making it to the Summit was an enormous dissapointment, however, travelling and guidance by Regan and his team was a 5-star experience.Excellent guide, responsible behaviour, Nice food and kind/warm people. Julien K2025-03-24Verified Climbing the Kili, crazy experience I had a wonderful time with Regan, Said and the whole team of Roshi Expeditions on the climb to Kilimanjaro.They will make sure you will climb safe and provides an incredible service when it comes to comfort and quality of life in the camp.It was a unforgettable experience, we made friends and memories. Thank you again and best of luck for the future ! Julien Passport578129325812025-03-12Verified Excellent - do it with ROSHEXPEDITIONS Regan and Saïd were such great guides. They accompanied us all the way up Kilimanjaro. The atmosphere was so cool. The porters were also incredible. They were all extremely professional and friendly. There's nothing to say. What's more, the guides shared their knowledge of the natural environment surrounding Kilimanjaro National Park with us. They took good care of us when we were a bit ill. Without the porters and guides, we'd never have made it. And above all, thank you to Regan for all the organisation. An experience I won't forget. I recommend Roshexpedition ++. Justine B2025-03-11Verified Amazing experience We were a group of 3 friends to climb Kilimanjaro at the end of February 2025. We highly recommend Regan and his team who enabled us to do this adventure in exceptional conditions. Stephanie S2024-09-09Verified First Safari + Excellent Guides = Great Experience It was just a spectacular life-impacting trip for me! We were well taken care off throughout the entire experience and our guides provided so much fun and interesting information! The accommodations and food were excellent. I had a lot of anxiety about traveling around the world to such a different place. But as soon as we arrived my anxiety was gone. People were so welcoming and we were well taken care of by our hosts! The animals and experience of the safari was absolutely amazing! We were able to view so many natural animal interactions that are once in a lifetime. Again our guides were so knowledgeable and did an excellent job taking us where we needed to go for great views! ❤️ Radha W2024-08-16Verified A remarkable, rewarding experience! 5 star service! I hiked to the top of Mt Meru and I can promise you, I .wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for Regan and Benny! I struggled at some points (due to some personal issues) and they were always there with encouragement, hot tea, and a nudge. They believed in me and made me believe it to! They were right, I did it! A life changing experience! I never, ever felt like they were impatient with me, they truly wanted me to succeed! We also had a great group of porters and a chef who took care of all our needs, hot bowls of water, delicious food, wake up knock with hot tea and a friendly smile! Then we went on a safari with Rosh. The migration, wow, what an incredible sight! Wildebeest and Zebras as far as we could see. Our guides, Philip and Elly, were always on their game, always working hard to get us to the best sight to see the animals and we saw them all! I personally love the elephants! We always had cold drinks, snacks and delicious lunches. Then, on to Zanzibar! Great resort on the east coast, near Paje, but outside town, a short walk to a quiet stretch of beach. We snorkeled, and rode ATVs, did a spice tour, visited local villages and played in the ocean. These guys can provide the whole package and it was amazing! Gergely D2024-08-09Verified Amazing experience! The company organized a Kilimanjaro climb and a 4-day safari for us. Everything went perfectly, they were really attentive and helpful, and solved all of our problems quickly. We had a much better experience than in other similar mountains, they really went the extra mile by providing everything we needed and then some more. I can only recommend the team! Jill M2024-08-05Verified Outstanding experience from trekking Mt Meru to Safari & Zanzibar This was my second trek with Regan and Rosh Expeditions and there is a reason I have used them twice! The first trek was Kilimanjaro and was such a rewarding experience that I brought friends back with me to do My Meru. We hiked Mt Meru and it was magical! The forest was beautiful and lush, we saw baboons, buffalo, zebra and antelopes. You hike with a Ranger but we were never in any danger. Summit night was challenging, windy but not too cold, an exhilarating experience. It is amazing to see be above the clouds and see the sun rising behind Mt Kilimanjaro . Our guides, Benny and Regan were phenomenal. Encouraging, supportive and ready with hot tea, snacks or an offer to carry your pack if needed. The porters were a fun group, always smiling and offering to help, bringing hot was water, filling out water bottles, up before us and to bed after us. Our cook, Rama, kept us well fed! The lodging at the camps was comfortable, quiet, flush toilets, 4 person rooms with a mattress and pillow, and beautiful views. Can’t recommend Rosh Expeditions enough!! We then went on a safari with this company. We saw everything and more! All the camps were phenomenal, our guides, Philip and Elly, always knew where to be to get the best views. They are so knowledgeable about the plants and animals - I learned so much! We had a cooler in the vehicle and it was stocked with cold water and Coke Zero!The great migration was just so amazing to see, wildebeest and zebras everywhere! Just a fun and fabulous experience from start to finish! Kev S2024-07-30Verified Tanzania adventure Friends and I used Rosh Expedition for 3 separate tours in Tanzania. Regan and his team picked us up at Kilimanjaro Airport and took us to our excellent accommodations in Moshi.The next day we set off on the first adventure which was to the village of Mataruni to visit the waterfalls and learn about the origins of coffee. This was an excellent tour to a Chagga tribe village at the base of Kilimanjaro.From Roshi we traveled to Arusha to prepare to hike Mt Meru. This was a 4 day hike. Regan, Benny and the rest of his staff (porters, guides and cook) were all excellent and knowledgeable. They were very supportive to ensure that we were all successful in our summit. I knew we were in good hands.Our next adventure was a 5 day safari. We had an aggressive tour by design and we covered a lot of ground. We toured Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and Serengeti National Park. Our guides, Philip and Elly, were excellent in locating all the animals. There was a significant amount of coordination with this tour and everything went according to plan. All of our accommodations were outstanding. We really connected with all of staff and really bonded with all of them. I highly recommend Rosh Expeditions and will certainly use them again when I return.
