The reason i choose to go on Safari was my wish to see Elephants next to a Baobab Tree .
Tarangire National Park was a perfect place for watching this sight .
A lots of Elephants and lots of Baobab Trees , also saw Giraffes and Chettahs !
Middle November was perfect season , as Sun and Rain follow each other , and many Animals had their Babies with them , to make the adventure even better !

I went during the summer and the weather was perfect. The mornings were a bit cold but it warmed up throughout the day and was comfortable. The wildlife was incredible, and as a photographer I can honestly say the camera couldn't capture the full beauty of some of these animals. There is nothing more breathtaking and astonishing than being able to see a baby elephant attach itself to its mother with its trunk less than 10 feet away from you and being able to make eye contact with a family of lions. Also, the scenery was incredible. The water and lakes were beautiful as well as the plant life and trees. Overall, it was an amazing experience and I am so grateful I had the opportunity to experience it at such a young age.

This is one of my favorite parks because it's generally the first on the trip and it doesn't disappoint. Lots of variety of animals. I'm not a birder, but our guides were extremely knowledgable about every winged creature. Our main guide and owner of company has published articles on birds.

The elephants!! This was the place where we spent hours watching elephants -- using their trunks to suck water from dry river beds, squirting water on their backs, throwing dirt on their backs, young calves playing, running, touching each other affectionately.... Ah, there might have been other animals, but, here, the elephants were the highlight!!

A rich and varied park. In the first half-day we had seen 3 of the 'Big Five'. A battle outside our tent one night over a pool of water left from a leaking pipe was impressive - although we only followed it by the sounds - too petrified to put our heads out of the tent!

Tarangire is excellent for elephants. Not that that comes as a surprise for anyone who's ever opened a travel / safari guide book, but I can now confirm it personally. For people who don't like elephants as much as I do, I can also say that the park landscape is gorgeous.

We enjoyed all the wildlife and scenery of this park. It's also not as busy with tourists in jeeps. Animals are comfortable being close so it's great for watching their behavior and photographing.

Interesting variety of biomes in Tarangire with its swamp and dry scrub lands and boba trees. Very beautiful landscapes. Able to see packs of elephants and herds of hoofstock and even some lions there. Loved our accommodations at Sangaiwe tented lodges.
