Already this drive will enchant you.
Tarangire National Park - We will spend the whole day on game drives.
Tarangire NP is known among insiders for one of the largest elephant populations in the world.
It was David Rechsteiner, one of Bernhard Grzimek’s closest collaborators, who persuaded Tanzanian President Nyerere to establish the park in the 1950s. The park owes its name to the Tarangire River, which meanders through the entire area from north to south. It is the main source of water in the region and attracts many animals, especially in the dry season from mid-July.
The hilly landscape with the huge baobab trees against the blue sky is simply breathtaking.
In the dry season, huge herds of up to 300 elephants can be seen here. But also considerable herds of buffalo, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, kudu or the rare oryx antelope come to drink at the river. If you are patient enough, you may even see leopards. They have the best living conditions here. Sometimes you can even see them in the trees.
Tarangire National Park - In the early evening, before the sun sets, we return to the campsite where we will prepare everything for the night and meanwhile our cook will prepare a wonderful dinner under the starry African sky.
