Join us for this full-day trip to the spectacular Tarangire National Park to experience the beautiful landscape and wildlife of Tanzania. This park is one of Africa’s little-known gems and should be on the itinerary of all lovers of wilderness and solitude.
At 2,600km², Tarangire is far from being the biggest of the Tanzanian parks, but its unrivaled landscape of open plains, dotted with thousands of baobabs, is unforgettable. At about 120kms south of Arusha, Tarangire is known for its tree-climbing lions and for its very big herds of buffalo. The game numbers are staggering and include 30,000 zebra, 25,000 wildebeest, 5,000 buffalo, 3,000 elephants, 2,500 Maasai giraffe,s and over 1,000 fringe-eared oryx. Predators include lions, cheetahs, and leopards. Birders will want to look out for the endemic ashy starling, Rufous-tailed Weaver, and Black-collared lovebird.
At 8 am we depart from Arusha town to Tarangire National Park. The tour ends back in Arusha at around 5 pm. Lunch is included.
It was a feel good safari trip, straight from heart !!! The tour manager of the company proved that, the social network site is enough to confirm everything on time.

Spend the day in Tarangire National Park, the famous park where Earnest Hemmingway often went on big game hunting safaris. Thankfully, today cameras have replaced the big hunting guns, and you can enjoy the seasonal marshes, endless savannah and beauty of the African wildlife without spoiling it.
The Tarangire National Park has the highest density of elephants in North Tanzania and you can view these animals all year round. The herds often reach an impressive number of 300 animals.
The Tarangire River in the park 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 drink. 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. 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 largest bird.
We will pick you up from your hotel in Arusha drive the 2-3 hours to the park before we start the safari. Enjoy the morning spotting animals and taking in the scenery. Around lunchtime, we will stop at a suitable picnic place before dedicating the afternoon to more wildlife watching. Before sunset, you will be taken back to your hotel in Arusha.
Lake Manyara is one of Tanzania's finest gems, stretching more than 30 miles (50 km) along the base of the Rift Valley escarpment. Explore this natural beauty, a great spot for bird watching and home to a large diversity of wildlife, with the help of your expert guide.
Wind your way through an expanse of lush, jungle-like groundwater forest, looking out the window to spot large troops of baboons that frequently lounge along the roadside, or blue monkeys scampering nimbly through the ancient mahogany trees.
Arrive at the grassy floodplain, contrasting starkly with the intimacy of the forest, with expansive views eastward across the alkaline lake to the jagged blue volcanic peaks rising from the endless Maasai Steppes. See the large buffalo, wildebeest, and zebra herds congregating on the grassy plains. Continue exploring, maybe spot a lion or leopard, and follow your guide for a photo at the hippos before pausing for lunch.
We chose this 2-day tour for a short weekend trip, and honestly it was much more than expected. On the first day I entered Tarangire National Park, I was overwhelmed to see huge elephant herds, zebras, giraffes, and lions. The guide explained to us all about the animals. On the second day, while descending to the Ngorongoro Crater, the whole scene is like a dream world - seeing black rhinos, lions, hippos, and innumerable gonos together is a truly amazing experience. Although time was limited, I didn't expect to see so much together. Perfect tour for those who want to taste Africa in a short time.

My wife and I haven't spent much time in Tanzania, so I picked up this 2-day hike + safari package - and honestly, it was the highlight of our trip.
The first day walking the Kilimanjaro Light Trail to reach the Maundi Crater - mind-blowing in a word! And the next day I saw lions, elephants, giraffes in Tarangire National Park in front of my eyes. The guide was very friendly, patient and knowledgeable. Everything is on time and hassle-free.
In my opinion, perfect for those who do not want to walk more, or have less time!
On this 2 days safari you will see different varieties of unique species including climbing lions, good elephants and baboons. Lake Manyara is a lovely scenic park on the road from Arusha to the Ngorongoro Crater. The lake itself takes up much of the park leaving a strip of land running down its shores where game concentrates.
