Tarangire National Park, Tanzania

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Tarangire National Park is a wildlife reserve in northern Tanzania, covering around 2,850 square kilometres in the Manyara Region. It is renowned for its exceptionally large elephant herds — among the biggest concentrations in Africa — along with its iconic ancient baobab trees that define the landscape. The Tarangire River acts as a lifeline during the dry season, drawing vast numbers of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, and predators, making it a prime safari destination. Less visited than the Serengeti or Ngorongoro, Tarangire appeals to travellers seeking an equally rewarding but quieter bush experience in Tanzania's northern safari circuit.

Self-Launched Tarangire National Park Day Safari from Arusha

A DIY version of Travel Africa Safari Agency's one-day Tarangire game drive. Instead of booking a packaged group tour, you can join a small shared day-safari seat-in-vehicle trip (widely sold in Arusha from around £120-160 per person including park fees, 4x4 with pop-up roof, driver-guide, lunch box and hotel pickup) or, for the more independent traveller, hire a shared 4x4 and self-arrange park entry. Tanzania's park fees are the single biggest cost and are non-negotiable (roughly US$70-80 conservation fee plus vehicle fee per day for non-residents), so a shared seat is by far the cheapest way to see Tarangire's elephant herds, baobabs and river valley. All costs are approximate and per person.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Tarangire National Park, Tanzania yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
