Tarangire is famous for its giant baobab trees, large elephant herds, and diverse wildlife. Upon arrival, begin an exciting game drive through the park while searching for lions, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, buffaloes, and many bird species. A picnic lunch will be served inside the park at a scenic spot overlooking the Tarangire River. The game drive continues into the late afternoon to maximize wildlife viewing.
