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.

breathtaking
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.

Elephants and Baobab Trees
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 !

One day in Tarangire
I spent a night and a day in the Tarangire National Park in late August. The park is very beautiful and rich in animal species. Countless are the presence of species of birds, in particular, I noted the inseparable black face. Also thick is the presence of elephants and wildebeest. And 'here, after so much time in Africa, I observed a pair of cheetahs. To note the beautiful view from the picnic area with the background of the Tarangire River at sunset. Must see.

We stayed at the Tarangire Safari Lodge--It was our favorite place to watch the animals at the river and around the tents. In addition the food was the best of all of the camps and lodges on our trip. The variety of animals as well as the trees made for interesting photography, One experience in particular deserves recognition. As we sat watching a lone of elephants cross the road, one suddenly turned and charged the vehicle and sunk both tusks into the grillwork. Our guide reacted immediately, powering into the elephant, thereby causing it to disengage. His expert actions surely avoided what might have been a disaster; we are deeply indebted to him.

The small birds were such a bonus. Neither I nor my wife expected to be that impressed by the birds, but they were amazing. Watching the elephants interact was easily the highlight of the trip, though. Loved seeing the little babies play in the mud. I was not expecting the variety of terrain, and that really made Tarangire unique.
Tarangire is a wonderful place to see elephants in particular. I saw countless elephant herds with newborns, as well as elephants mourning over a dead carcass. I was also incredibly fortunate to see a pack of extremely rare wild dogs lounging in the sun.

Great Park, I sure need to come back
Only after a few meters that you have entered the park, you will stumble across elephants. There is no doubt about that. The park is huge and the 1,5 day we visited we only could cover a bit. It was out first game drive in Tanzania and within one day we spotted of course zebra's and gnoes, elephants and monkeys. But what about a wild dog eating of a dead gnoe near the road. Baby elephants near our car without the herd getting nervous. Several leopards in trees. Great lunch spots. Many people visit Tarangire Wildlife Park and it is more than worht it. The park is so big and that it will not feel over crowded. There are all sorts and sizes of accommodation so you can decide for your self what suits you best. The park is very versatile in its surroundings with open field, bush, rivers, savanne, hills etc. Definitely a place it would come again.
