Why Choose 8 Days Kilimanjaro Machame And Tarangire Safari?

A seven-day Machame Route itinerary gives the mountain section the main focus of the trip. You spend several days moving through different landscapes before reaching the summit area and descending toward the mountain gate.

The Tarangire day then provides a completely different setting. Instead of hiking at altitude, you spend the day in a safari vehicle observing wildlife and landscapes. This makes the package appropriate for travelers who want a combination of physical activity and wildlife viewing.

The itinerary also avoids adding a long safari extension after the climb, which can be useful when your available holiday time is limited.
Destinations: 8 Days Kilimanjaro Machame And Tarangire Safari

Mount Kilimanjaro

Tarangire National Park

Tarangire is the wildlife destination at the end of the itinerary. Its game-drive environment provides opportunities to observe elephants and other wildlife after the physical challenge of the Kilimanjaro trek.

Package Price: 8 Days Kilimanjaro Machame And Tarangire Safari
