Zanzibar to Tarangire National Park

Get ready for an epic adventure! As soon as we touch down between 9:00-9:20 am, we're off to Tarangire, famously dubbed "the land of Giants." Our safari guide will whisk you away on a thrilling 2-hour drive through Maasai land before we hit the Tarangire gate.
After a morning packed with excitement, we'll pause for a delightful picnic lunch by the river's edge. Tarangire is home to an annual migration that rivals Serengeti's famous spectacle. But here's the kicker: the sheer number of elephants gathering at the riverbanks during the dry season is truly breathtaking!
