African safari! It's not just about the Great Migration, the flamingo flocks in May are stunningly beautiful
💖Why do I strongly recommend going to Tanzania in May? Less people, more animals, and it's cheaper, but I won't mention all that! The focus is on the sea of flowers and flamingos during this season, which really touches my heart! 💖
1️⃣Lake Manyara🌊 | Flamingos & Tree-climbing Lions🦁
Home to over 400 species of birds🦜, the flamingos are the most famous here! When the flamingos turn both the lake surface and the sky pink, it's unbelievably beautiful! In addition, there are elephants, hippos, giraffes, antelopes, buffaloes, baboons, mongooses, black-and-white colobus monkeys, and warthogs. Another highlight that can't be seen elsewhere is the tree-climbing lions, which other lions can't do! 😲
2️⃣Ngorongoro Crater🌋 | African Big Five beneath a Blanket of Flowers🐆
In May, the flowers here bloom competitively🌼, with golden wild daisies, purple lavender, and white lilies... spreading out in large swathes, covering the entire crater like a fairyland🧚♂️. Elephants, lions, zebras, ostriches, and rhinos walk through the sea of flowers, and the Big Five become gentle🤗. Riding in a safari vehicle through it is romantically intoxicating😍!
3️⃣Serengeti🌍 | 99% of African Animals Seen in One Go🐘
Unlike Kenya's July to September, in Tanzania, the coveted river crossing scene can be witnessed in the Serengeti from May to November🤩. Also, it is one of the best areas to watch cheetahs, hippos, crocodiles, and elephants🐆, plus there are many rare plants, such as the baobab trees🌳.
4️⃣Zanzibar Island🏝️ | A Beach Resort Not Inferior to the Maldives🏝️
Just an hour's flight from Nairobi✈️! The island is truly serene with beautiful scenery, and the beaches and sea are on par with those in the Maldives🏝️. At the northern tip of the island, Nungwi Beach offers great snorkeling experiences🤿; to the south, you can go out to sea to watch dolphins🐬, and to the west, there is the more pristine Jambiani Beach🏖️.

Simba on Safari
Visited the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Crater with E & E Safaris and had a blast. Great price and great driver. William knew a lot about the park and the animals, and always made sure to get us the location we needed for great pictures.
We stayed outside the park and did a one day trip, but they offer different packages. One day was enough for the Ngorongoro, and the views were just as impressive as the animals!#Safari #ngorongoro #Tanzania #Simba
