Life on Safari

A day trip to Tarangire National Park, Tanzania, is a fantastic option for immersing yourself in the beauty of the African savanna and witnessing a vast array of wildlife. Here’s what you can expect:

Early Morning Departure:

  • Day trips typically begin with a departure from your location. You’ll travel through scenic landscapes, passing Maasai villages and experiencing the fresh African air.

Arrival and Entrance:

  • Upon reaching the park, you’ll go through the entry formalities and be briefed by your guide about the day’s itinerary and safety regulations.

  • Embark on a Game Drive: The primary activity in Tarangire National Park is an exciting game drive. Buckle up in an open-sided 4WD vehicle and embark on an unforgettable adventure.

  • Witness Diverse Wildlife: Tarangire is known for its abundant wildlife, particularly elephants. You’ll likely encounter large herds of these magnificent creatures and other herbivores like zebras, wildebeests, giraffes, and gazelles.

Predators like lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas are also present in the park, although spotting them might require a bit more luck. Keep your eyes peeled and listen attentively to their calls!

Birdwatching enthusiasts will be delighted by the park’s over 550 bird species, including colourful birds like the kori bustard, the lilac-breasted roller, and the secretary bird.

  • Lunch Break:

    Enjoy a delicious picnic lunch amidst the stunning scenery, often near a watering hole where you can observe animals gathering to drink.

  • Departure:

    As the day winds down, you’ll depart from the park, taking with you the memories of your African safari adventure.

"As first-time safari travelers, we were nervous. From the moment we arrived, Serengeti African Tours took care of everything. The Ngorongoro Crater literally took our breath away."
