Your drive down a steep trail carries you onto the crater floor, where a unique wildlife offering adds to the sheer beauty of the experience. You will share the sunken ecosystem on the crater floor with hyenas, lions, elephants, black rhinos, and hippos. An ecosystem formed in the crater in the millennia since the volcano wrought terrible fury upon the land. Today might just be one of your best safari days ever!

Explore one of Tanzania’s most rewarding national parks, a land of big baobab trees, big elephants, and big cats. No wonder this ends up being the favorite park in Tanzania for many visitors. Sightings of wildebeest, giraffes, hippos, buffaloes, baboons, vervet monkeys, and zebras are also almost guaranteed. Tarangire is home to one of Tanzania’s healthiest lion populations, so lions are plentiful here. While you will have to work a little harder to see a cheetah or leopard, it will only enhance your excitement when you do.
