Day 1
Tarangire National Park
Tarangire National Park
After breakfast, you will be collected from your lodge and driven to Tarangire National Park with lunch boxes in hand. The drive to Tarangire National Park is about 110 km and takes about two hours from Arusha. Tarangire National Park is a vast park best known for its large herds of elephants, but it's also great for lion and leopard sightings, boasts a wonderful variety of birdlife, and features a diverse landscape and wildlife. The stunning Silale Swamp, located towards the south of the park, is almost always rich in wildlife, as animals take advantage of this reliable water source. The park receives water not only from the swamp but also from the Tarangire River. During the dry season, the river serves as the primary source of water for all the animals in the area, making for fantastic viewing. After a full day in the park, we will drive to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.
