Tarangire National Park is a must-visit for all animal lovers out there! In Tarangire, you can experience wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle coming to the area in search of water during their incredible journey. Not only that, but Tarangire also boasts some of the largest elephant herds in East Africa. And since Tarangire is less crowded than many other national parks, you can often get up close and personal with these gentle giants as they traverse the bush. The park's baobab trees are also a sight to behold.
Tarangire National Park is located in northern Tanzania's Manyara Region, in East Africa. Tarangire Park is about a two-hour (120 km) drive from Arusha, near Mount Kilimanjaro.
The best way to get there is to fly into Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), which is only 46 kilometers (29 miles) from Arusha. Alternatives include taking a domestic flight to Dar es Salaam's Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) or Arusha Airport (ARK) before transferring to JRO. Regardless of how you get there, the 2-hour drive from Arusha, followed by an unpaved 7km stretch leading up to the park's entrance gate, will be well worth it.
A tour of Tarangire National Park is an excellent way to admire Tanzania's incredible wildlife. From the comfortable safari vehicles, visitors can catch glimpses of lions, elephants, leopards, wildebeest, zebras, and over 550 bird species. Those looking for a more personalized experience can opt for guided walking safaris, which will allow visitors to appreciate their surroundings from a closer perspective.
