Famous for the Baobab trees and also a great number of elephants during the dry season, everything here happens around the Tarangiry river. Close to Arusha gives easy acces and good for family's with children.

This park is definitely my favourite out of Arusha and Manyara. The landscapes are beautifully spotted with Baobobs and the herds of elephants are truly breathtaking.

Tarangire is more famous for elephants. Wild cats are not the easiest to spot here.

Fantastic Elephant concentration and beautiful baobab trees. Definitely recommended before going to Ngorongoro or Serengeti

There are huge baobab trees at Tarangire! We got really close to some marabu storks. Saw a lioness hunt, but she was too far away.

Wow, so many elephants, this is truly prime elephant country, especially when you look at the horizon and see a herd of over two hundred elephants in the distance! We also saw two leopards, one with a kill in a tree, and our camp (Taragire Safari Lodge) is totally unfenced so lots of gazelles wandering around. However the landscape was a bit dry and not that pretty, and maybe because it was at the end of our safari but we didn't see many "new" animals except for dik dik of which there were quite a few. However it's a great park and probably best visited at the start of a safari, not the end.

Tarangire was not as picturesque as perhaps Ngorongoro Crater or Serengeti, but still had an abundance of animal life and more birds than the others.

Didn't see all that many bird species.
