You’re heading out to see the best parks but you still want more. What to do?

Itinerary

Day 1: Meet and greet at Tarangire National Park (L,D)

Approximate Distance: 118km

Estimated Travel Time: 1.5 hrs

Your tour starts at 8am with a pick up at your Arusha Hotel. Drive to Tarangire National Park for a mid morning and afternoon game drive.

Tarangire National Park covers 2,600 square kilometers and is on the traditional migration route of several species of the wildlife. At dry times, the concentration of animals in Tarangire rivals that of the much better known Serengeti. Herds of migratory wildebeest, gazelle, zebra and buffalo gather along the marshy shores of Lake Natron.

These pools are shared by flocks of birds: green wood hoopoes, fisher lovebirds, tallish herons, white bellied go-away birds and giant kingfishers. Resident lion, giraffe, elephant, and black rhino are common at any season; Tarangire is noted for its baobab trees and splendid vistas of rolling savannah and acacia woodland. The strange-looking, centuries-old baobab trees are believed by the Maasai to be the first tree in creation.

Lodging: The Arusha Hotel
Description: The Arusha Hotel has been Arusha’s centerpiece since 1894. Home to those traveling between the Cape and Cairo…. and further afield in these modern times, its lengthy and vivid history stands as true today as it was over 100 years ago. A real focal point since the turn of the last century, The Arusha Hotel provides elegant, refined accommodation that cleverly balances all that is modern and classic. Inside the highest-quality rooms, services and cuisine all come in surroundings that reflect its history, sophistication and charm. Outside the original lush and extensive tropical gardens give the hotel a calm relaxing feel – an oasis in the center of Arusha town. After an extensive renovation and refurbishment program, The Arusha Hotel (formerly The New Arusha Hotel) is now the leading and best loved hotel in Arusha town, making it the natural choice for visitors to Arusha, be it for business or adventure.

Day 2: Day and night game drives on Tarangire National Park (B,L,D)

Enjoy a morning, afternoon and a special night game drive in the Tarangire National Park.

The park is known for its tree-climbing lions and for its very big herds of buffalo. This is one of Africa's little-known gems and should be on the itinerary of all lovers of wilderness and solitude. The game numbers are staggering: 30,000 zebra, 25,000 wildebeest, 5,000 buffalo, 3,000 elephant, 2,500 Maasai giraffe and over 1,000 fringe-eared oryx (gemsbok). Predators include lion, cheetah and leopard and birders will want to look out for the endemic ashy starling, rufous-tailed weaver and black-collared lovebird.
