Day 1

Arusha to Tarangire National Park

Arusha to Tarangire National Park

After breakfast at your accommodation in Arusha, you will be met by our driver-guide, who will deliver a short briefing. Then, you'll head into the Tarangire National Park for a game drive. The park runs along the line of the Tarangire River and is mainly made up of low-lying hills on the Great Rift Valley floor. Its natural vegetation mainly consists of acacia woodland and giant African baobab trees, with huge swamp areas in the south. Both the river and the swamps act like a magnet for wild animals during Tanzania’s dry season. The Tarangire National Park is reputed to contain some of the largest elephant herds in Africa. This national park is also home to three rare species of animals: the greater Kudu, the fringed-eared oryx, and a few Ashy starlings. You'll have a picnic lunch, after which you'll continue with the game until late evening. Then, you'll drive to the Ngedere budget Lodge for an overnight stay.
