Our expert guides specialize in finding secluded spots away from the crowds, where you can witness lions and massive herds gathering along the life-giving Tarangire River. This experience offers the rare luxury of solitude and a raw, authentic connection to the wilderness

Itinerary and highlights

We will pick you up from your hotel at Arusha at 7am and take you to a very special national park. Tarangire is famous for its diverse landscape with nine different vegetation zones. The park is particularly known for the abundance of Ancient Baobab trees (the largest trees in the continent) which fill the landscape and dwarf the animals next to them. The river of the park is full of wildlife ranging from a large variety of birds to lions, leopards, zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes and, of course, elephants. In fact, the park has the largest concentration of elephants in the whole country and provides unique chances to observe the interaction between elephant families. The lunch area is fascinating, boasting an observatory with amazing views to the river and wildlife (with good chances of seeing a hunt while having your picnic). In the afternoon we will still do a game drive before returning to Arusha.
