Exceptional choice
The most luxurious lodge in the park, by a very long way! I’ve always loved Manyara Tree Lodge but tend to use it rarely due to the fact we don’t often keep clients at Manyara for longer than one night.

WILDchild program
-
Twice-daily game drives are led by expert guides who’ll introduce you to Lake Manyara’s diverse habitats and its resident wildlife. In particular, keep an eye out for the famous tree-climbing lions for which the park is well known. There will also be time for sunrise refreshments and sundown drinks as the day draws to a close.
Experience the exhilarating world of Africa’s nocturnal predators on a night drive. After an early dinner, leave the lodge and explore the park for approximately 3 hours, watching out for nocturnal species and listening to the bush come alive with its splendid cacophony of night sounds.
Meander through the forest around Lake Manyara Tree Lodge and encounter its extraordinary variety of birds, butterflies, and other small creatures that are easily missed from a safari vehicle.
A treetop canopy tour takes you through an ancient forest, where you’ll marvel at the landscape from viewing decks suspended above the forest floor.
Spend the night under a blanket of stars on a stunning sleep-out adventure. After a night game drive, you’ll arrive at a secluded sleep-out spot to find a crackling campfire and all the necessary amenities required for a comfortable night’s stay close to nature. This experience is suitable for two to four guests, aged 16 and above.
To collect your bicycle, drive to Mayoka, where you’ll begin your cycling adventure. You’ll ride through this vibrant village and interact with its friendly residents, including members of the nomadic Mang’ati tribe.
These form an introduction to the Wild Impact projects. Wild Impact is &Beyond’s long-standing community and conservation development partner. Visit one of the local communities, and learn how Wild Impact provides support and opportunities.
The WILDchild program is designed to keep younger guests thoroughly entertained with a variety of activities, including butterfly walks, bow-and-arrow shooting, spear throwing, football games, cookie baking, and marshmallow roasting in the boma.
*This property is unfenced and located in a wildlife area, so large and potentially dangerous animals do pass through. If you opt to stay here, always be alert when walking around the camp and request for a member of staff to escort you if you have any concerns. Any guest is escorted after dark as a matter of course.

The lodge’s communal area features a stylish split-level design.
Elevated under a thatched roof, the open-sided lounge and bar is beautifully styled with local crafts, storm lanterns, and photographic prints. On the floor below, the forest-view dining room is connected to an open-plan, interactive kitchen, where guests are invited to spend time with the chef. Outside, dining is also a signature experience, enjoyed in a traditional African boma beneath the stars, accompanied by an atmospheric campfire. Relaxation centres on the swimming pool, complete with sunloungers and parasols for shade. A dedicated sala provides a tranquil space for massage treatments by trained spa therapists. A final stop is the safari shop, which stocks a carefully curated selection of local crafts, clothing, and mementoes to take home from your Tanzania safari.
