Arusha to Tarangire National park
Arusha to Tarangire National park
After breakfast, you will be picked up from your accommodation in Arusha and head to Tarangire National Park in the Manyara region. The park's name originates from the Tarangire River, which crosses it.
Ranking as the 6th-largest national park in Tanzania and covering an area of 2,600 square kilometers, it is most famous for its large elephant herds. It is usually very dry, in fact, drier than the Serengeti. However, its vegetation is much greener, with lots of grass, vast areas with mixed acacia woodlands and some of the wonderful ribbons of the aquatic forest. Also, do not forget about the giant baobab trees that can live up to 600 years, storing between 300 and 900 liters of water.

Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha
Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha
Distance: 210km
Non–wildlife viewing time: 3 – 4 hours
After an early breakfast, you will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro Conservation area supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebras, buffalos, elands, warthogs, hippos, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park is its dense population of predators. This includes lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot. You will visit Lake Magadi, a large but shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, which is one of the main features of the crater. A large number of flamingos, hippos, and other water birds can usually be seen here. In the late afternoon, you'll transfer to Arusha to your hotel or airport drop-off.
