The best time for Lake Manyara safaris is during the dry season from June to October when wildlife viewing is optimal. However, the park is beautiful year-round, with green landscapes during the wet season (November to May).
Pack light, neutral-colored clothing (khaki, beige), a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, insect repellent, comfortable walking shoes, binoculars, and a camera. A light jacket is recommended for early morning and evening game drives. For luxury accommodations, bring elegant evening wear for dining experiences.
Yes, Lake Manyara safari is suitable for children aged 6 and above. Children under 6 may find the long drives and camping experience challenging. Please inform us in advance if traveling with young children so we can make necessary arrangements.
