Travel Itinerary
Your safari begins in the morning with a warm welcome from your professional driver-guide at your hotel in Arusha or Karatu. After a short briefing, you’ll depart for Tarangire National Park, driving through picturesque countryside and Maasai villages as the landscape slowly transforms into classic safari terrain.
Upon entering Tarangire, the adventure truly begins. The park is renowned for its large elephant herds, ancient baobab trees, and the life-giving Tarangire River, which attracts wildlife throughout the year. You’ll enjoy an extensive game drive, exploring open savannahs, acacia woodlands, and riverbanks while spotting elephants, lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, buffalo, and a rich variety of birdlife.
At midday, you’ll stop at a scenic location inside the park for a luxury picnic lunch, allowing you to relax and take in the sights and sounds of the wilderness. After lunch, continue your afternoon game drive, taking advantage of the best wildlife activity hours.
In the late afternoon, exit the park and transfer to your luxury lodge or tented camp located near Tarangire or in the Karatu highlands. Settle into your elegant surroundings, enjoy a freshly prepared dinner, and unwind as you reflect on your first day of safari.
