Tarangire National Park Day Trip

Spend a day among Tarangire's elephants and baobabs; a quick yet intense glimpse into Tanzania’s vibrant ecosystem.

Moshi or Arusha – Tarangire National Park We will pick you from your hotel in Moshi or Arusha and following a 2-3 hour drive, you will arrive at the Tarangire National Park.

In this region, Hemmingway often went on big game hunting safaris. After the formation of the national parks in 1970, they turned the seasonal marshes and the endless savannah that one sees today into, once again, profitable hunting grounds. Today however, cameras thankfully have replaced the elephant guns. The Tarangire National Park has the highest density of elephants in North Tanzania and you can view these animals all year round in which the herds often can reach an impressive number of 300 animals. The Tarangire River has water all year round and during the dry season, between July and October, many animals from the surrounding areas come to the river for drinking.
