After a hearty breakfast, embark on your first game drive to Tarangire National Park, famed for its giant baobab trees and large elephant herds. As you journey through this iconic landscape, keep your eyes peeled for lions, leopards, and a variety of antelope species. Tarangire River, a lifeline for wildlife during the dry season, will offer you unparalleled opportunities for wildlife viewing.
