Beautiful in all aspects including the history, the sunrise and the game.

Beautiful scenery. Lush vegetation and mountains. It lacks diversity of animals and predators tough.

Going to manyara at the end is not really worth it, too much bush, more difficult to spot animals, there are apparently climbing tigers, but difficult to find.
there were thousands of flamingos, but they are too far to really understand how many they are.

Manyarra can be considered as an opener, a soft introduction to exciting safari ahead in Serengeti and Ndutu area.
For bird lovers it is good, and the fact that it is on the way and breaks the journey time, it must be explored.

Not as good wildlife sighting as the other parks we saw but still very good. Many more monkeys and baboons than other places. We saw some elephants in the dense forest as well

Lake Manyara seemed smaller to me than other parks, but had a wealth of birds and other wildlife, especially monkeys and baboons. I was there on an overcast and windy day which made for a different and fantastic experience.

We didn't visit in the best season so wildlife wasn't the best but it was beautiful and I will definitely go back in a better season!

Wrong time of year for the flamingos, wild life was poor.

It was rainin and one of the rivers flooded so we were unable to access a large portion of the park it seemed. It is heavily forested which made it difficult to spot wildlife, but still very beautiful.
