Tarangire National Park, Wildlife Safaris in Tanzania
Tarangire National Park is a lovely, quiet park in located in Northern Tanzania and famously known for its elephant migration, birding and authentic safari atmosphere. It is exceptional for all travelers interested in watching elephants. In the Peak season, the Park has lots of wildlife species to watch.
Tarangire: The Game
During the dry months the concentration of animals around the Tarangire river is almost as diverse and reliable as in the Ngorongoro Crater. However, the ecosystem here is balanced by a localised migration pattern that is followed by the majority of game that resides in and around the park.
Tarangire: Activities
Tarangire safaris are the main activity, however, staying outside the park makes walking and night safari a possibility. There are no boat safaris on the rivers here but Oliver’s Camp offers adventurous fly camping trips and very good walking safaris. Both Oliver’s Camp and Swala have recently started night safaris within the park itself. Ask us for more information as the regulations here seem to change every year!
Tarangire: when to go
The game viewing from July though to October is exceptional but for the remainder of the year the majority of game migrates out of the park, onto the floor of the Rift Valley and to the grazing grounds of the Masai steppe. As a result, we would advise visitors not to expect high concentrations of game in the off season months, but would still recommend travelling here to those who want to avoid the crowds.
