Day 1

Arusha to Tarangire National Park

Arusha to Tarangire National Park

You’ll be picked up from your hotel in Arusha or directly from Kilimanjaro/Arusha Airport and embark on a scenic 3-hour drive to Tarangire National Park. Upon arrival, you’ll enjoy a full-day game drive through the park, with a hot lunch served at a designated picnic site within the reserve. In the evening, you’ll head to the Lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
Tarangire is famed for its impressive gatherings of up to 300 elephants, often seen digging into the dry riverbed in search of underground water sources. The park also hosts migrating herds of wildebeest, zebras, buffaloes, impalas, gazelles, hartebeest, and elands—making it one of the most wildlife-rich areas outside the Serengeti ecosystem. Predators are never far behind, drawn by the abundant prey. Unique sightings include the fringe-eared oryx and the long-necked gerenuk, both adapted to dry environments. Tarangire stands out as a seasonal sanctuary, attracting a diverse range of animals during the dry months.
