Tarangire National Park Wildlife Safari

Tarangire National Park · Arusha, Tanzania

Your Tarangire day safari begins with an early morning pick-up from your agreed location in Arusha. Travel through the scenic countryside towards Tarangire National Park, a remarkable wildlife destination known for its ancient baobab trees, open savannah and large elephant herds. Upon entering the park, enjoy a game drive with your experienced driver-guide through different habitats in search of elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, wildebeest, antelopes and other wildlife. Keep an eye out for predators such as lions and leopards, although sightings depend on natural conditions. The Tarangire River is an important source of water for wildlife, particularly during the dry season. Pause for a picnic lunch at a designated site before continuing your afternoon game drive. Enjoy more opportunities to observe wildlife, appreciate the park’s distinctive landscapes and take photographs along the way. Later in the afternoon, exit the park and return to your agreed drop-off point in Arusha.
