Itinéraire

1. We will collect you from your hotel in Arusha and following a 2-3 hour drive, you will arrive at the Tarangire National Park. The park runs along the line of the Tarangire River and is mainly made up of low-lying hills on the Great Rift Valley floor. Its natural vegetation mainly consists of Acacia woodland and giant African Baobab trees, with huge swamp areas in the south. Both the river and the swamps act like a magnet for wild animals, during Tanzania’s dry season. The Tarangire National Park has the highest density of elephants in North Tanzania and you can view these animals all year round in which the herds often can 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 and 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 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.

About Arusha

Arusha, dans le nord de la Tanzanie au pied du mont Meru, est le point de départ des safaris vers le Serengeti, le Ngorongoro et Tarangire.

La ville s'étend sur les pentes basses et verdoyantes du mont Meru, deuxième sommet de Tanzanie, avec des plantations de café et des bananeraies en périphérie et un marché central animé en son cœur. Le parc national d'Arusha, tout près de la ville, propose des safaris à pied, du canoë sur les lacs Momella, des singes colobes dans la forêt et l'ascension du Meru lui-même.
