Trip Description

Take a day safari to Tarangire National Park, known for its wide variety of big game animals and towering baobab trees. The Tarangire River crosses the park, attracting lions, leopards, zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes, and many species of birds. It is also home to the largest concentration of elephants on the continent. Lunch and one game drive are included.

We will pick you up from your hotel at Arusha at 8am and take you to a very special national park. Tarangire is famous for its diverse landscape with nine different vegetation zones. The park is particularly known for the abundance of Ancient Baobab trees (the largest trees in the continent) which fill the landscape and dwarf the animals next to them. The river of the park is full of wildlife ranging from a large variety of birds to lions, leopards, zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes and, of course, elephants.

In fact, the park has the largest concentration of elephants in the whole country and provides unique chances to observe the interaction between elephant families. The lunch area is fascinating, boasting an observatory with amazing views to the river and wildlife (with good chances of seeing a hunt while having your picnic). In the afternoon we will still do a game drive before returning to Arusha (around 5pm to 6pm is the return time).
