Early morning departure from Arusha towards Tarangire National Park. The drive passes through the Maasai plains and arrives at the park by 9:00am for a full day of game driving. Tarangire's budget campsites are located near the park's most productive wildlife areas — meaning campers often hear lion calls and hyena activity throughout the night. Game drives cover the Tarangire River corridor, baobab floodplains, and swamp areas, providing outstanding elephant and bird sightings. Later, drive to Karatu for a Dinner & Overnight.
