Considered Tanzania's best-kept safari secret, Tarangire National Park is 2,850 square kilometres of ancient landscape renowned for hosting Africa's largest elephant herds — groups of up to 300 individuals. The park takes its name from the Tarangire River, meaning 'winding river of warthogs', the only reliable water source during the dry season, which draws extraordinary concentrations of wildlife. Iconic ancient baobab trees define the landscape, and 545+ bird species make it a world-class birding destination. Night game drives, hot air balloon safaris, and guided walking safaris are all available.
