Zanzibar To Tarangire National Park

Your day begins with a flight from Zanzibar Airport to Arusha Airport early in the morning, where your driver-guide will meet you at the airport. From there, you’ll enjoy a scenic 2-hour drive to Tarangire National Park, known for its huge elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. The park is named after the Tarangire River, a key water source that attracts many animals, especially during the dry season (June–November). You'll stop for a hot picnic lunch inside the park, then go on a short game drive before heading back to your lodge in Karatu for dinner and a relaxing overnight stay.
