Exploring Tarangire National Park

Our journey commences from Arusha as we head towards the breathtaking Tarangire National Park. Spanning an impressive 2,600 square kilometres, this park reveals its true magnificence during the dry season. It becomes a spectacle as numerous migratory wildlife species return to the enduring waters of the Tarangire River. Huge herds of wildebeest, zebras, elephants, eland and oryx gather to stay in Tarangire until the onset of the rains when they migrate again to good grazing areas. Expect to encounter large herds of elephants while here that are accustomed to vehicles. You will enjoy your lunch at the park and later have an evening game drive before heading to your accommodation for dinner and an overnight stay.

Central Serengeti Exploration (Seronera)

After breakfast, we proceed to the Central part of Serengeti. Our journey takes us to the central region of the Serengeti.

Exploring Central Serengeti (Seronera)

After breakfast, we will leave for Central Serengeti National Park, accompanied by a picnic lunch and engaging in a game drive en route. Serengeti, renowned for its extraordinary wildlife and breathtaking landscapes, is especially celebrated for the annual migration of over 1.5 million wildebeest and hundreds of thousands of zebras. This remarkable spectacle, marked by territorial conquests and frenzied mating, unfolds from July to October.

Witness the compelling drama of survival as these animals navigate crocodile-infested waters during their pilgrimage. Notably, the wildebeest population produces more than 8,000 calves daily before commencing the 1,000 km (600-mile) journey once again.
