Day 1

Arusha/Kilimanjaro Airport - Tarangire National Park for Game Drive

Arusha/Kilimanjaro Airport - Tarangire National Park for Game Drive

Our safari guide from our office will pick you up from the Airport or lodge in Arusha and drive you to Tarangire National Park for a game drive and wildlife sightings, while carrying lunch boxes. Once you finish the game drive, we will transfer you to the lodge, where you'll stop for relaxation, dinner, and an overnight stay.

The park is named after the Tarangire River, which runs through it. This "river of warthogs" is the only source of water for wildlife in the region during the Dry season. The park is well known for its elephant families, which can often be seen congregating by the river. You may also see giraffes, bushbuck, and hartebeest. These animals are closely followed by a range of predators, including lions and leopards. Lunch will be at a picnic site inside the park.

A beautiful environment unfolds, with shimmering lakes and wetlands, patches of acacia woodland, and broad savannah hidden behind the sheer volcanic walls. The crater formed two to three million years ago when a massive volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself. It's well-known for its geological wonders as well as being a nature reserve that harbors some of the largest populations of large mammals on the African continent.
