Wayo Manyara Green Camp is positioned deep inside Manyara National Park in a stunning location which capitalises on both wildlife and an impressive topography. The towering rift, calling of bush babies and evening calls of both elephants, lions and hyena make this camp a must at the beginning or end of a Safari circuit.
The camp is made up of 8 spacious tents each enjoying attached bathrooms. Set on decks, the arrangement provides guests with a raised view and solid wooden floors underfoot.
Each tent benefits from a king-sized bed which can be arranged as a twin as required. The structure and interiors have all been locally crafted linking to our commitment to empowering local people. The roof is gauze; revealing the stars via an automatic retractable roof and much of the wooden features have been reclaimed from our previous camp.
Often known as our ‘family adventure camp’, this location offers night Game Drives, Canoe Safaris and a Treetop Walkway within the park. Walks can also be arranged whether it is a leisurely amble along the lake shore or a full day extreme hike up the Rift Valley. More activities are available on the approach to this park whether you would like to mountain bike to the park gate or enjoy village tours on foot or by Tuk Tuk.

Game Drive back through the park and up to Ngorongoro and then the Serengeti or head to Manyara Airstrip for the rest of your adventure.
Game Drives are available in camp as part of your package and you can also book a private Guide and vehicle. Wayo Africa Guides are well known in the industry as being some of the best.
Our Guides are keen to provide the very best experiences and they prioritise wildlife away from other vehicles and manage
Our Serengeti Green Camp primarily offers a taster of Walking Safaris. Wayo Africa can run short walks from this camp either in the morning or the afternoon. Longer full-day walks are available with a private vehicle and Wayo Guide.
Walking provides guests with a very different Safari. Guides unpick the careful balance of the Serengeti ecosystem from the length of the grasses to the dung beetle and caterpillar. Walks are conducted by our most experienced Safari Guides, all of whom have had rifle training. They are accompanied by a Serengeti Park Ranger.
The reassurance of this safety allows guests to settle into the experience. Longer treks can become almost interpreted as a meditative journey.
This is a mass movement of animals within the Serengeti ecosystem which stretches from the lower flanks of Ngorongoro through the Serengeti National Park and up into the Mara in Kenya.
The migration is the largest movement of mammals on the planet with over 2 million animals following a similar pattern each year. In these herds, the majority of the animals are wildebeest (1.3 million), 800,000 zebra and 200,000 Grant’s Gazelle.
Wayo Little Green Camp can be combined with Wayo Manyara Green Camp and Wayo Serengeti Green Camp in our Stay 4 – Pay 3 and Stay 5 – Pay 4 combinations.

There are thousands of miles of single-track routes to explore in Tanzania – biking tours do not get any better. Most routes offer smooth and easy riding but there are also more challenging areas for the more adventurous. Our Biking Safari activities are designed to give you both unique wildlife experiences and immerse you in local culture.
Arusha & Manyara Mountain Biking
Our Biking Safaris in Arusha run from both Arusha Serena Hotel & Rivertrees Country Inn. Manyara Biking Safaris are run from our activities office in Mto Wa Mbu.
