As the fourth largest national park in Tanzania, Tarangire and its extremely diverse habitats, support an equally rich variety of mammals, birds and flora – which make it a delight to explore. Magnificent thousand-year-old giant baobab trees dot the park, and large herds of elephant and other game seasonally swell the large numbers of resident wildlife.
Experience the major wildlife highlights and contrasting locations of northern Tanzania on this excellent value, classic safari. Combining the wide open plains of the Serengeti, the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire’s outstanding birdlife, this is a perfect introduction to Tanzania.
