Tanzania Bird Watching Safaris

Ndiva Safaris offers incredible opportunities for bird watching in Tanzania’s Northern Circuit. This region boasts diverse bird species amidst stunning landscapes and abundant wildlife.

Here’s a glimpse into what you can expect on a bird-watching safari with Ndiva Safaris:

  1. Serengeti National Park:
    Known worldwide for the Great Wildebeest Migration, Serengeti is also a paradise for bird enthusiasts. The park hosts over 500 bird species including ostriches, secretary birds, and various raptors. The Seronera area and the Grumeti River are advantageous for bird watching.

  2. Ngorongoro Conservation Area:
    The Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is home to a wide array of birdlife. You can spot flamingos in the crater’s soda lake, along with various waterbirds, raptors, and the elusive Kori bustard.

  3. Lake Manyara National Park:
    Famous for its tree-climbing lions, Lake Manyara is also a haven for bird watchers. The park’s diverse habitats, from the lake itself to the groundwater forest, support over 400 bird species including pelicans, storks, and the vibrant lilac-breasted roller.

  4. Tarangire National Park:
    With its iconic baobab trees and seasonal swamps, Tarangire is a magnet for birdlife, especially during the dry season. Look out for endemic species such as the yellow-collared lovebird, as well as numerous raptors and waterbirds along the Tarangire River.

  5. Arusha National Park:
    This lesser-known gem at the foot of Mount Meru offers fantastic birding opportunities. From the montane forests to the alkaline lakes, you can spot a variety of species including the turaco, trogon, and the rare Fischer’s lovebird.

  6. Mount Kilimanjaro:
    While known primarily for its iconic summit, Kilimanjaro’s lower slopes also harbor unique birdlife. Bird watchers can explore the montane forests and grasslands to spot species like the scarlet-tufted malachite sunbird and the silvery-cheeked hornbill.
