RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES: These include, game drives, guided walking safaris, bird watching on the shores of the not too distant Lake Manyara and cultural interaction with Datoga and Maasai, whose bomas populate the adjacent land. In the wet season, the Manyara and Tarangire Pans fill with water which attracts huge flocks of Flamingos and other wading birds. The area is also the only place in Eastern Africa where one is often able to see the migration herds of tens of thousands of Wildebeest and Zebra, followed by predators. Although the migrations do occur in other areas of Tanzania, the tree cover prohibits a view of the magnitude that you are able to see at Maramboi Tented Camp because of the exposed nature of the surrounding grassland.
