Day 3 Visit the Hadzabe trible in lake Eyasi
On this day we suggest a very early wake up, take packed breakfast with us in order to do an early morning activities with the Bush Men.
There are over 120 different cultural groups living in Tanzania today, but perhaps one of the most unique (or old-fashioned) is the Hadza.
There are right around 1,000 Hadza left in Tanzania (the only place this group lives), and some 300-400 of them live as true hunter-gatherers, sharing meat when they can find (and kill) it, and living off foraged tubers, berries, fruits, and honey when they can’t. As far as oral histories of the Hadzabe and anthropological research on the tribe can determine, their practices have barely changed in thousands of years.
This is one of the last true nomadic tribes in Africa and a truly fascinating experience where you will join the members of the village in their local morning activities.
After the morning activities, you will procced drive back to the Lodge for the hot delicious lunch and dinner at Farm of Dreams Lodge. http://farmofdreamslodge.com/

A World Heritage Site and proclaimed Seventh Wonder of the World, Tanzania’s oldest and most popular national park is famous for being host to the annual Great Migration, when some two million hooves pound the open plains, ranging from mega-herds of millions of wildebeest to more than 200,000 zebra and 300,000 Thomson’s gazelle searching for fresh grazing. Yet, even when the migration moves on, the Serengeti offers the most scintillating game-viewing in Africa: great herds of buffalo, smaller groups of giant elephant and statuesque giraffe, and thousands upon thousands of elands, topi, kongoni, impala and Grant’s gazelle. And where there is food, there are predators, so the Serengeti’s big cat and predator concentration is high all year round…
