Even if you don’t have the time to follow the big herds, you will be amazed at what you see in just a short time in Serengeti. With a massive population of lions, you will see many feelings of pride, and at different times of the day, you will see them at rest, hunting, or feeding. Approximately seventy other large mammals, primates, and up to 500 species of birds throughout the Park mean that it is always a spectacle. In short spaces, you can visit many ecosystems such as kopjes, swamps, riverine forests, and the famous, vast, open grasslands.
Activities: Game Drives, Historical Tour, Maasai Culture tour.

Meet at the agreed pick-up point in Arusha and depart for Tarangire National Park. Picnic lunch and game drive in Tarangire National Park. Tarangire National Park covers an area of 2,600 sq km and was established in 1970.
The Park has numerous baobab trees that will primarily catch your attention. The Park derived its name from the Tarangire River, which rises in the highlands of Central Tanzania and winds its way through the game sanctuary. The river beguilingly lures the herds of plains migrants from the surrounding area to its shrunken but permanent brackish waters during the dry season.
The animals come by thousands from as far north as the shores of Lake Natron to the bank of this river, significantly swelling the resident population with wildebeest, zebra, eland, elephant, hartebeest, buffalo, and fringe-eared Oryx.
During the dry season, the Tarangire pools are clotted with thirsty migrants, and the elephants begin to dig for underground streams in the dry riverbed.
Tarangire National Park is said to have the highest recorded number of breeding bird species for any habitat in the world.
