In the morning, there will be a very short brief about the safari schedule, including the day’s plan for the game drive’s timings, what is to be seen, and places to visit. After this short briefing, you will start the trip to the Tarangire National Park. You will arrive after a 2-3 hours’ drive from Arusha. The park is one of the most attractive parks in Tanzania, with a river which is the primary source of fresh water for graminivores, carnivores and various other common local wildlife. During the annual dry season (June – November), all animals are congregated in the park for fresh water – and so you will witness high densities of elephants, thousands of zebras, wildebeest, Cape buffalo, as well as lions, leopards, cheetahs, caracals, honey badgers, African wild dogs, waterbucks, giraffes, dik-diks, impalas, elands, grant gazelles, vervet monkeys, banded mongooses, olive baboons, and many others. What’s more, Tarangire National Park is a perfect place for bird-watchers with over 550 different bird species – including the Maasai Ostrich (the world largest bird). 

Around afternoon, you will stop at a suitable picnic place to have lunch. Then you will continue with more of wildlife viewing and exploration of the beauty in Tarangire National Park, including its beautiful baobab trees, termite mounds, granitic ridges, river valleys, swamps, and many other natural attractions surrounding the area.

In the evening, before sunset, and after having an epic day full of enjoyment – the game drives, having seen a variety of flora and fauna, you will be driven back to your hotel for dinner and overnight stay to Marera Valley Lodge in Karatu as the next stopover in this tour.
