We'll pick you up from the hotel (after your breakfast) and after being familiar with the guide, a chef, and other clients, you will drive to Tarangire National Park (2 hours), famous for its diverse landscape. The park is particularly known for its abundance of ancient baobab trees, having the largest concentration of elephants and providing unique chances to observe the animals.
Proceed with a game drive through the park depending on where they have reported sightings of animals (mostly predators, lions, cheetahs, and leopards). Later on, you will go to the Tarangire River picnic site and enjoy the beautiful view of the river and animals while having lunch. Small monkeys and baboons will try to scare you off your lunch but there is nothing to worry about. After lunch, you will proceed with the game drive and exit the park at around 4:30 pm. You will then head to accommodation (campsite) for dinner and your overnight stay.
