ITINERARY:

We will pick you from your hotel in Arusha and following a 2-3-hour drive, you will arrive at the Tarangire National Park. The order of the day are extensive game drives across the park. Tarangire has the highest density of elephants in North Tanzania and you can view these animals all year round; the herds can sometimes reach an impressive number of up to 300 animals.
The Tarangire River has water all year round and during the dry season, between July and October, many animals from the surrounding areas come to the river to quench their thirst. If you visit the park during the dry season, you will witness an unforgettable natural wonder as you can observe wonderful creatures such as lions, giraffes, buffaloes, wildebeests, and zebras as well as various types of antelopes and gazelles and with a little luck, you can also spot a python! This area is during the dry season also a haven for bird watchers with over 550 different species including the Masai Ostrich – the world’s largest bird. Around lunchtime, you will stop at a suitable picnic place before the afternoon is dedicated to more game drives and wildlife watching. Before sunset, you will be taken back to your hotel in Arusha.
Drop off back at your hotel in Nairobi.
