Tarangire Full Day Trip Tour

Safari summary

Tarangire is the least visited of the parks along Tanzania’s northern circuit, and it’s a crying shame. The park’s large elephant population, iconic Baobab trees, and diversity of wildlife make it one of the best parks in the country for taking breathtaking photos or simply basking in the beauty of the world’s largest land mammals.

Game drives through Tarangire are particularly thrilling during the dry season when the animals of the park must cluster closer and closer to the Tarangire River. This offers a great opportunity to see plenty of animals in one place and to witness the predator-prey relationship in action.

Your Tarangire Full Day Trip Tour begins with an early morning pickup from your hotel in Arusha or Moshi, where you’ll meet your friendly guide. After a scenic drive to Tarangire National Park, the landscape transforms into a stunning mix of acacia woodlands, baobab trees, and rolling savannahs.

As you enter the park, prepare for an exhilarating day of wildlife spotting. Tarangire is home to a significant population of elephants, and you’ll likely witness these majestic creatures roaming in their natural habitat. Keep your camera ready to capture the incredible sight of elephants bathing in the Tarangire River, especially during the dry season when animals flock to the water.

Throughout the day, you’ll have opportunities to spot various wildlife species, including lions, giraffes, zebras, and a plethora of bird species. Enjoy a picnic lunch in the park surrounded by nature, and take a moment to soak in the serene atmosphere and stunning views.

Your knowledgeable guide will share fascinating insights about the park’s ecosystem, wildlife behavior, and conservation efforts, enriching your experience and deepening your appreciation for this remarkable destination.

In the late afternoon, as the sun begins to set, you’ll start your journey back, reflecting on the incredible sights and experiences from your day in Tarangire National Park. Arrive back at your hotel in the evening, filled with memories of Tanzania’s wildlife and landscapes.
