Soon, the asphalt turns into dirt roads; you have arrived at Tarangire. Tarangire is the most beautiful wildlife park in northern Tanzania, and you definitely want to see it. The enormous national park has the wildlife-rich Tarangire River as its lifeline. The park is dominated by photogenic baobab and palm trees scattered throughout the hilly landscape.

We will do a game drive through the park, depending on reported sightings of animals (mostly predators like lions, cheetahs, and leopards, as they are harder to spot). The herbivores, such as giraffes, wildebeests, zebras, etc., are plentiful and easy to spot in the park
