Overview

Ideal for: Nature enthusiasts, birders, those seeking a deeper immersion

For those who yearn to delve deeper into Manyara's secrets, the Forest Circuit beckons. Immerse yourself in the dappled light of the groundwater forest, a verdant oasis teeming with ancient trees and exotic birdsong. Hike along nature trails, spotting shy monkeys flitting through the canopy and colorful butterflies dancing in the air.

As you emerge from the forest's embrace, explore the lush hippo pools where these colossal creatures wallow lazily in the mud. Watch playful zebra foals frolic alongside their mothers in the nearby grassy plains, and marvel at the graceful movements of giraffes as they browse on acacia leaves.

On your second day, embark on a canoeing adventure on the tranquil Mvunyoni River, gliding past a kaleidoscope of birdlife perched on the papyrus reeds. This serene experience offers a unique perspective on the park's hidden corners.

    I am 6 feet tall and 220 lbs. This shirt fit me perfectly in the chest and shoulders. My only complaint is that it is so long! I like to wear polo shirts untucked. This shirt goes completely past my rear end. If I wore it with ordinary shorts, you probably wouldnt be able to see the shorts at all – completely hidden by the shirt. It needs to be 4 to 5 inches shorter in terms of length to suit me. I have many RL polo shirts, and this one is by far the longest. I dont understand why.

    The shirt was not the fabric I believed it to be. It says Classic Fit but was made like the older versions, not the soft cotton like my others. I don’t understand how the labels are the same but a completely different shirt. Oh well, stuck with it now.
