Arusha to Tarangire National Park

We’ll pick you up from your hotel in Arusha for the scenic two-hour drive to Tarangire National Park. As we leave the city behind, you'll witness the transition from Arusha's urban landscape to vast open plains and charming Maasai villages.
Once inside the park, you'll be greeted by the sight of the Tarangire River, surrounded by acacia and baobab trees, where animals roam freely throughout the day. During the dry season, thousands of animals from the Maasai Steppe migrate to the Tarangire area in search of water, allowing you to spot a variety of species in a short amount of time. The park is also home to rare and endangered animals like the greater kudu, fringe-eared oryx, and the ashy starling.
Enjoy a picnic lunch at one of the park’s scenic picnic spots, offering a stunning view of the Tarangire River.

In the late afternoon, we’ll make our way back to Arusha, reflecting on an unforgettable day immersed in nature’s wonders.
