Day 1: From Arusha to Tarangire National Park

After breakfast in the morning (around 7:00 AM), your safari guide will come to the hotel and let the receptionist know that he is ready for you. Once you meet your driver/guide, you'll head to Tarangire National Park, and by 9:00 AM, you'll be on your first safari!

In this park, you can observe a variety of wild Tanzanian animals, including lions, buffaloes, giraffes, and zebras. However, it is particularly renowned for its remarkable population of elephants, which usually remain near their water source, the Tarangire River.

Please keep in mind that this is untamed nature, so the guide cannot promise the sighting of specific wild animals. However, rest assured he will make every effort to locate everything you wish to see! A meal will be provided at lunchtime, after which the safari will resume. In the evening, you will be taken to your accommodation in the Karatu area.

Ngorongoro is renowned as one of Tanzania's most fascinating national parks due to its high concentration of diverse animal species per square kilometer. Visitors can encounter buffalo, elephants, lions, wildebeests, zebras, hippopotamuses, and feline species like caracals and servals. The most fortunate travelers may even spot a rhinoceros, a species whose population is swiftly diminishing.

By lunchtime, you will reach the lakeside, where lunchboxes will be provided, and the safari will then proceed.

In the evening you will be transferred back to the hotel in Arusha.
