2 travelers on Start dateArusha to Tarangire National Park
You'll drive to Tarangire National Park, one of Africa’s little-known gems, and should be on the itinerary of all lovers of wilderness and solitude.
Tarangire’s landscape is incredibly diverse. It is dotted with ancient baobab trees and large termite mounds. The dry season sees the harsh sun suck the moisture from the landscape, baking the earth a dusty red while the wet season brings dense bush and luscious high grasses.
Famous for its large elephant population, it is also home to zebras, wildebeests, giraffes, waterbucks, baboons, dwarf mongoose, impalas, buffalos, antelopes, and fringe-eared oryx. Predators include lions, cheetahs, and leopards.
