Join Bellbird’s spectacular Tanzania tour in 2028! The Serengeti, a vast unspoiled savannah, hosts

the most spectacular concentration of animals on our planet: herds of wildebeest, gazelles and ze

bras; lions, leopards, cheetahs and smaller predators; and scavengers such as jackals and vultures are ever present. This tour allows plenty of opportunity to savor the big game and find many classic East African birds. Equally world-renowned is the Ngorongoro Crater with lush forests at the rim overlooking the grasslands and lakes of the Crater below. This is Africa in a microcosm. Breathtaking scenery, superb birding and great wildlife, including the endangered Black Rhinoceros, it offers excellent photographic opportunities. We also visit three other fine National Parks, all of which offer additional birding and wildlife opportunities. Arusha National Park is a highland area of extinct volcanoes covered in thick forest, holding localized birds and mammals; Tarangire National Park is famous for its bizarre Baobab trees and offers the best elephant-watching opportunities of the tour as well as excellent birding; Lake Manyara National Park is a compact area nestled beneath the towering Rift Valley cliffs. It encompasses a soda

lake, with a large variety of waterbirds. We stay in comfortable lodges with beautiful, bird-rich gardens and we also include “off the beaten track” areas that give us the best chance for more birds. We’ll also visit the huge expanse of Lake Victoria adding many new bird species. Expect a bird list exceeding 400 species and 40-50 species of mammals!
