Northern Tanzania Excursion May 2010
During our spring semester multi-day excursion to Northern Tanzania, we visited the town of Arusha, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara National Park. It was a great opportunity to learn about the diversity of Tanzania's economy, people, cultures, landscapes and wildlife away from Dar es Salaam. At Ngorongoro Crater, we visited a Masai Manyatta, where the residents welcomed us all with song, dance, and warm hospitality. One of the CIEE students got to join the women of the village in one of the traditional Masai dances.
