After an early breakfast, depart for Tarangire National Park with a packed lunch. The park is famous for its large elephant herds and scenic landscapes featuring baobab trees and seasonal swamps.
Enjoy a full-day game drive, where you may spot lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras, and other wildlife gathering around the Tarangire River. In the late afternoon, drive to your lodge for dinner and overnight.

Arrive in time for an afternoon game drive, where you may encounter predators such as lions, cheetahs, and leopards, along with large herds of herbivores roaming the open savannah.
