Arusha to Tarangire National Park

After breakfast at the hotel and a short safari briefing, drive to Tarangire National Park for a full-day game drive in the park.

Tarangire National Park is a lovely, quiet park in Northern Tanzania and is located slightly off the main safari route. It is most famous for its elephant migration, birding and authentic safari atmosphere. The majority of travellers to the region either miss out on Tarangire altogether or venture into the park for only a matter of hours, leaving parts of Tarangire virtually untouched.

During lunch, your driver will set and prepare the table for the meal of soup. This will be followed by a glass of wine, tea or coffee. After lunch, continue with the game drive until the evening, when you'll drive to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.

The reclusive leopards are commonly seen in the Seronera area.
