Tarangire National Park

Everything seems to be cast on a grander scale in Tarangire National Park, from the giant baobab trees that bring such personality to the park's landscapes to the massive elephants for which the park is famous. Although a popular place to visit for travelers on safari through northern Tanzania, Tarangire rarely feels crowded, and that becomes even more true the further south you go in the park. Other wildlife to look forward to here includes big cats, zebra, hippo, buffalo, wildebeest and more. If you're really lucky, you might spy the park's transient population of African wild dog.

When people dream of the Serengeti, it's probably the Central Serengeti they're dreaming of. That's because you're in the perfect place to see all that the Serengeti has to offer, and this is the area of the park where wildlife is present in the biggest numbers. It's also filled with acacia trees and those Serengeti horizons that seem to go on forever.

Explore the Northern Serengeti and get to know one of the park's most beautiful corners. Wildlife viewing is excellent all through the year, but that is especially the case whenever the migration passes through. This is also the area of the park that sees the fewest visitors, which means you can enjoy the river, grasslands, rocky scenery and the animals without interruption.

Activity Day 5

Full Day

After breakfast, travel north through the Serengeti, where the landscapes become more rugged and wild. Northern Serengeti is where the famous wildebeest migration often takes place, with animals crossing the mighty Mara River. This is a chance to witness dramatic river crossings and gatherings of crocodiles and hippos. Stay at the comfortable Mara Mara Tented Lodge, surrounded by nature’s beauty. Relax by the fire or enjoy a drink while sharing stories of today’s incredible sights.

Activity Day 6

Full Day

Enjoy another full day exploring the rich wildlife of northern Serengeti. Early morning game drives offer the chance to see predators like lions and leopards hunting, while herds of grazers move across the plains. Look for elephants, giraffes, and even rare bird species. The vast views and silence of the wild make this day truly special. Return to Mara Mara Tented Lodge in the evening and take in the stunning sunset over the savannah, surrounded by the sounds and beauty of Africa.
