Starting at your accommodation around 8:00 am, you will receive a short briefing about the safari and then depart to the national park. The Tarangire National Park is located south of Lake Manyara.

Big cats are also frequent in the dry season, and the abundance of baobab trees will surely make it possible for you to collect amazing African postcards.
