Tarangire National Park

Day 2Tarangire National Park Tarangire National Park Today, your safari takes you to Tarangire National Park, one of Tanzania’s most exciting wildlife spots! The Tarangire River runs through the park, attracting giraffes, zebras, antelopes, and buffaloes, along with the lions that follow them. You’re almost certain to see these majestic predators! During the Dry season, the river becomes the only water source for miles, drawing huge elephant herds. Tarangire has Northern Tanzania’s largest elephant population for much of the year (especially June to October and December to March). These gentle giants aren’t shy and often come close to safari vehicles. It is completely safe, as they have no natural enemies and are simply curious.

This way, you will catch the precious morning hours in the Ngorongoro Crater when the animals are most active and extremely engaging to watch. At 6:30 AM, you will set off for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and in about an hour, you will already be inside the crater. Ngorongoro is one of the most famous and exciting of Tanzania's national parks! Here you can find the highest concentration of animals and the widest diversity per square kilometer. You will have the chance to see buffalos, elephants, lions, wildebeests, zebras, hippos and feline species such as caracals and servals. The luckiest travelers might even see rhinos, whose numbers are rapidly declining today. You will have lunch near the lake, which is home to hippos. Then, continue your safari around the crater. You will be back for dinner at your hotel for your stay in Arusha.
