Giant Elephant Herds & Ancient Baobabs of Tarangire
Experience a classic full-day Tanzania safari in Tarangire National Park, renowned for massive elephant herds, ancient baobab trees, and predator sightings along the Tarangire River.
Tarangire National Park is one of Northern Tanzania's premier wildlife destinations, located roughly two hours southwest of Arusha. Its rolling savannahs are dotted with monumental baobab trees and bisected by the life-giving Tarangire River.
Home to the largest concentration of elephants in northern Tanzania, Tarangire regularly rewards visitors with close sightings of multi-generational elephant families alongside giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, impalas, elands, and Cape buffaloes.
During your private full-day 4x4 game drive with a pop-up roof, your guide will track lions, leopards, and over 500 recorded bird species around the riverbanks and seasonal swamps.
