Spend the day on thrilling game drives through this beautiful park, named after the life-giving Tarangire River that winds through its heart. The landscape is dotted with towering baobab trees, rolling savannahs, and acacia woodlands that attract an impressive array of wildlife.

Day 2 – Tarangire National Park

This is the perfect time to spot predators returning from their nighttime hunts and herds of elephants making their way to the river to drink.

Return to camp for a late breakfast, then pack up and continue on an en-route game drive as you make your way out of the park. Keep your eyes open for final sightings of lions, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, and countless bird species that thrive in this diverse ecosystem.
