TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK
This day trip to the Tarangire National Park
will show you the rich diversity of life that still abounds, even during the
dry season.
DAY 1: ARUSHA – TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK
We will collect you from your hotel in 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. If you visit the
park during the dry season, you will witness an unforgettable natural wonder as
you can observe wonderful creatures such as lions, giraffes, buffaloes,
wildebeests and zebras as well as various types of antelopes and gazelles and
with a little luck, you can also spot a python! This area is during the dry
season also a haven for bird watchers with over 550 different species including
the Masai Ostrich -the world largest bird. Around lunchtime, you will stop at a
suitable picnic place before the afternoon is dedicated to more wildlife
watching. Before sunset, you will be taken back to your hotel in Arusha.
