5 Days Safari to Serengeti And Lake Eyasi

Day 1: Arusha To Ngorongoro Crater

In the morning at 0600 hrs, pick-up time from your hotel in Arusha town, with your packed lunch, drive on the tarmac road 190 km to the Ngorongoro Conservation entry gate. Drive on and descend 2000 feet (over 600 meters)  into the crater floor for a day game drive, Explore the forest areas that are inhabited by monkeys and elephants, the lake area, where you may see the flamingos, and the open Savannah where the lions hunt for food. Ngorongoro is a special place in that it is a Conservation Area, not a National Park; this means that the whole area is managed for both the animals and the local Masai people who graze their cattle alongside the indigenous wildlife. During the drive-in Ngorongoro, we have a chance to glimpse something of the Masai way of life. After stopping at the entrance gate, where there is a chance to learn more about this fascinating volcanic landscape, we will drive around the rim of the Crater itself, and from here we can look down and see the herd of wildebeest or buffalos. This truly world-class attraction is also known as the ’8th Wonder of the World’ Finally we descend into the crater. The crater walls provide a natural sanctuary for the animals, which means there is plenty to see: lions, elephants, buffalo, rhinos, and leopards (if you are lucky). The only animal you won’t see here is a giraffe, whose long legs are unable to cope with the steep sides of the crater. In the late afternoon, we start going out of the crater overnight at  Our dinner and overnight at  RHINO LODGE

Lake Eyasi

Lake Eyas -Hadzabe Tribe

Lake Eyasi is a lake located in Tanzania, south of the Serengeti National Park and to the southwest of the Ngorongoro Crater in the Crater Highlands area. It is one of several lakes situated on the floor of the Great Rift Valley. The northeast end of the lake is drained by the southwest flank of Ngorongoro Volcano. The lake is rectangular, but the southeast side appears to be shallower due to sediment filling the shore. The perimeter of the lake has a fairly steep embankment, and the former shoreline can be identified by the color change. The water levels in the lake fluctuate dramatically seasonally, which may indicate that Lake Eyasi is relatively shallow even during periods of maximum water.

The Bushman, also known as the Wahadzabe tribe, still maintains their traditional hunter-gatherer way of life. When you visit their village, a local guide will lead you and describe their lifestyle. You will see the Bushman making fire from sticks and displaying their few belongings. They will take you on a simulated hunt with their bows and arrows, and you can even try some target practice. The visit will conclude with traditional singing and dancing.

During the rainy season, they stay in caves, and in the dry season, they live in trees and bushes. Homes are marked by upright sticks in a semi-circle, and the beds and floor mats are made of hides from kudu and impala.

The men hunt for wild animals and birds with bows and arrows, using different arrows for different types of animals. For large animals, they use poisoned arrows. They also eat honey, tubers from the ground, and fruits from the Baobab tree. During the dry season, they must dig down in the dry river bed to find water.

Men and women socialize in separate groups, and small children and babies stay with the women. Boys aged 7 and older stay with the men. The Bushman are monogamous, and the dowry to marry a woman is 2 big baboons and many liters of honey.

Men wear shorts and animal hides, while women wear colorful clothes wrapped around them. Jewelry is made from beads, porcupine quills, fur, and hide.

Arrows and jewelry can be purchased from them with TZ shillings or traded (baseball hats, etc.).
