Tour itinerary:
In this region, Hemmingway's often went on big game hunting safaris. After the formation of the national parks in 1970, they turned the seasonal marshes and the endless savannah that one sees today into, once again, profitable hunting grounds.
Today, however, cameras have thankfully replaced the elephant guns. Tarangire National Park has the highest density of elephants in North Tanzania, and you can view these animals all year round.
The herds often reach an impressive number of 300 animals. The Tarangire River has water all year round, and during the dry season, between July and October, many animals from the surrounding areas come to the river for drinking.
If you visit the park during the dry season, you will witness an unforgettable natural wonder as you can observe wonderful creatures such as lions, giraffes, buffaloes, wildebeests, and zebras, as well as various types of antelopes and gazelles.
With a little luck, you can also spot a python! This area is, during the dry season, also a haven for bird watchers, with over 550 different species, including the Masai Ostrich, the world's largest bird. Around lunchtime, you will stop at a suitable picnic place before the afternoon is dedicated to more wildlife watching. Before sunset, you will be taken back to your hotel in Arusha.

Safari njema tarangire national park
Essential items to pack for a Tanzania safari include lightweight and breathable clothing, comfortable walking shoes, a hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, binoculars, a camera, and any necessary medications. It's also advisable to pack layers for cooler mornings and evenings, as well as a waterproof jacket in case of rain.
Tanzania is known for its diverse wildlife. On a safari, you can expect to see animals such as lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, buffaloes, leopards, cheetahs, rhinos (in a few select areas), hippos, crocodiles, and a variety of antelope species. Birdlife is also abundant in Tanzania.
The best time for a safari in Tanzania depends on what you want to see and experience. The dry season from June to October is popular as wildlife congregates around water sources. The wildebeest migration usually takes place from December to July. However, different parks have different peak seasons, so it's advisable to research specific regions and their seasonal patterns.
The duration of your safari depends on your interests and the specific areas you wish to visit. Many people opt for a 4- to 7-day safari, which allows for a good wildlife experience in multiple parks. However, it's also possible to extend your safari and combine it with other attractions, like the beaches of Zanzibar or cultural visits.
Tanzania is generally considered safe for tourists, including safari-goers. However, it's always advisable to exercise caution and follow the guidance of your tour operator or guide. Be aware of your surroundings, listen to instructions, and take necessary precautions to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
Tanzania offers a range of accommodations to suit different preferences and budgets. Options include luxury lodges, tented camps, mobile camps, and budget-friendly campsites. Some lodges and camps are located inside the national parks, while others are situated in private concessions adjacent to the parks.
Yes, most visitors to Tanzania require a visa. You can obtain a visa in advance from a Tanzanian embassy or consulate, or you can get a visa on arrival at the airport or border entry points. It's recommended to check the visa requirements and application process beforehand to ensure a smooth entry into the country.
