Gets its name from the famous Rift Valley

It is the perfect location to relax before or after visiting Tanzania’s northern national parks, conveniently located between Tarangire and Lake Manyara. Africa Safari Rift Valley is off the beaten path. The pool and restaurant is embedded in the surrounding landscape and offers stunning views of the Rift Valley and Lake Manyara. The southern entrance to Lake Manyara National Park, Iyambi Gate, is a short distance away. This national park has a variety of wildlife, including the famous tree-climbing lions.

Lake Manyara National Park is a haven for hippos, giraffes, impalas and zebras. The west end of Tarangire National Park, Sangaiwe Gate, is less than an hour’s drive away. Tarangire National Park is known for its large number of picturesque baobab trees and is home to the largest population of elephants in northern Tanzania.
