Journey Through Tanzania, Your Essential Travel Resources
Tarangire National Park in northern Tanzania is renowned for its vast herds of elephants and majestic baobab trees. Covering approximately 2,850 square kilometres, it is Tanzania's sixth-largest national park. The park is named after the Tarangire River, which traverses its landscape and is a vital water source for wildlife during the dry season. This river attracts many animals, making Tarangire one of Tanzania's most rewarding game-viewing destinations.
Size: Approximately 2,850 square kilometres.
Established: In 1970.
Location: Located in northern Tanzania, about 118 kilometres southwest of Arusha.
Climate: The park has a tropical climate with distinct wet and dry seasons.
June to October: The dry season is the best time to visit as animals gather around the Tarangire River and other water sources, making wildlife spotting easier. The vegetation is less dense, providing better visibility.
November to May: The wet season brings lush, green landscapes and is ideal for bird watching. However, wildlife is more spread out because water is available throughout the park.
Game Drives: Experience morning, afternoon, and even night game drives to spot a wide range of animals.
Bird Watching: With over 550 species, the park is a bird watcher’s paradise.
Guided Walks: Take guided walking safaris to explore the park’s flora and fauna on foot.

Reptiles: Includes species such as monitor lizards, pythons, and numerous other snake species.
Insects: A variety of insects, including colourful butterflies and dragonflies, particularly around water sources.
Vegetation: Home to large baobab trees, acacia woodlands, and seasonal swamps, which provide diverse habitats for wildlife.

Incredible trip with our incredible guide, Danny. Not the usual safari: we spent time living with the Maasai and explored 3 different parks seeing all the animals (except the leopard - this time!).
