Tarangire National Park Day Trip begins with a convenient pick-up from your hotel in Arusha. After a scenic 2-3 hour drive, you’ll arrive at the iconic Tarangire National Park, a region once frequented by Hemingway for big game hunting safaris. Following the formation of national parks in the 1970s, the park’s seasonal marshes and endless savannah were transformed into protected areas, where cameras have now replaced the elephant guns. The Tarangire National Park Day Trip offers a chance to witness the highest density of elephants in northern Tanzania, with herds often reaching up to 300 animals. The Tarangire River, which flows year-round, draws various animals to its waters, especially during the dry season from July to October. This is when you’ll see an incredible gathering of wildlife, including lions, giraffes, buffaloes, wildebeests, zebras, and antelopes. If you’re lucky, you might even spot a python! Bird watchers will be thrilled by the over 550 species in the park, including the massive Masai Ostrich. During the Tarangire National Park Day Trip, you’ll also enjoy a picnic lunch in a scenic spot before continuing with an afternoon of wildlife watching. As the day draws to a close, you’ll head back to your hotel in Arusha, enriched by an unforgettable safari experience.
