    Game Drive At Tarangire National Park

    After a hearty breakfast, you'll set off for Tarangire National Park, named after the river that flows through it, the primary water source for wildlife during the dry season. This park’s varied landscape is dotted with iconic Baobab trees and tall grasses, making it a unique destination in northern Tanzania. Tarangire is renowned for its birdlife, with over 550 species, including the delightful yellow-collared lovebird. The Tarangire swamps are home to the world’s highest concentration of breeding bird species. You might even spot Omo, the rare white giraffe, with her unique leucistic condition.

    Ngorongoro Crater to Moshi/Arusha

    We’ll rise early and head to the Ngorongoro Crater for a thrilling game drive. The early morning is the best time to spot wildlife as the park is peaceful and animals are more active. The Crater, formed millions of years ago by a volcanic eruption, is a unique ecosystem where many animals live year-round. It’s one of the best places to see the “Big Five”—lion, elephant, leopard, rhino, and buffalo—along with zebra, wildebeest, hippos, hyenas, and graceful flamingos along the Soda Lake. The Crater is also a hotspot for vultures, storks, and geese. We’ll enjoy a picnic lunch in the crater before concluding our game drive

Frequently Asked Questions

Travel Info at glance

What should I wear on a safari day?

Wear lightweight, neutral-colored clothing (like khaki or beige) to stay cool and blend into the environment. Comfortable walking shoes, a hat, and sunglasses are also recommended. Early mornings and evenings can be chilly, so bring a light jacket.
What time do safari game drives usually start and end?

Morning game drives typically start around 6:00 AM and last 3–4 hours, while afternoon or evening drives begin around 3:00–4:00 PM and return by sunset. Exact times may vary depending on the season and your lodge’s schedule.
Is it safe to go on a safari?

Yes, safaris are safe when conducted by professional guides who follow park rules. Always remain in the vehicle unless instructed otherwise and avoid sudden movements or loud noises near wildlife.
Will I see all the Big Five during my safari?

Sightings vary and are never guaranteed as animals roam freely. However, with experienced guides and multiple game drives, your chances of spotting the Big Five—lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, and buffalo—are high in many national parks.
What should I bring with me on a game drive?

Bring binoculars, a camera, sunscreen, insect repellent, water, and a small snack. Your guide may also provide some of these items, but it’s best to come prepared.
