This Tarangire Day Trip Safari is the perfect escape. Located just 2–3 hours from Arusha, Tarangire National Park is known for its massive elephant herds, towering baobab trees, and classic African landscapes. With a full-day game drive and round-trip transport included, this safari is ideal for travelers seeking a memorable wildlife experience in just one day.
Your day begins with an early morning pick-up from your hotel or lodge in Arusha, Moshi, or nearby areas. You’ll meet your professional safari driver-guide and set off on a scenic drive through Maasai villages and open countryside toward Tarangire National Park (approx. 2–3 hours’ drive).
Upon arrival, you’ll check in at the park gate and begin your game drive through the beautiful savannah landscape.
Explore Tarangire’s diverse habitats, home to elephants, giraffes, zebras, lions, impalas, ostriches, buffalo, and dozens of bird species. The park is especially famous for its elephant population and huge baobab trees dotting the landscape.
Midway through the day, stop at a scenic picnic site for lunch with views over the park, where you can relax while keeping an eye out for passing animals.
After lunch, continue your afternoon game drive, covering different areas of the park and possibly spotting predators such as lions or leopards resting in the shade.
Later in the afternoon, you’ll exit the park and begin your return drive back to Arusha (or Moshi), arriving in the early evening and dropped off at your hotel or lodge.
