Day 1

Tarangire National Park Game drives

Tarangire National Park Game drives

Meet your English speaking guide at your Hotel in Arusha town at 08:30am and proceed to Tarangire National Park for a full day game drive with picnic lunch.

The park runs along the line of the Tarangire River and is mainly made up of low-lying hills on the Great Rift Valley floor. Its natural vegetation mainly consists of Acacia woodland and giant African Baobab trees, with huge swamp areas in the south. Both the river and the swamps act like a magnet for wild animals, during Tanzania’s dry season. The Tarangire National Park is reputed to contain some of the largest Elephants herds in Africa.

This African National Park is also home to three rare species of animals, the Greater Kudu, the Fringed eared Oryx, as well as a few Ashy Starlings.

Also you will see many Elephants and Big Baobab trees.

Dinner and overnight at Migombani campsite.
