Lake Manyara National Park
The main attraction of this place (still often known by its previous name, Lake Manyara Tented Camp) is its setting in a grove of enormous fever trees (migunga in Swahili) that echoes with bird calls. The 21 tents ringing large, grassy grounds are small but adequate, and they're fairly priced. The camp is 2km south of the main road.
There’s also a great rustic dining room, and the adjacent campsite has good hot-water facilities. Village tours and mountain-bike hire are available.
