Traverse the wide-open plains of Tarangire in the most classic sense - a game drive! Head out with the larks or after an afternoon siesta in a 4x4 to cruise around with binoculars firmly affixed to your eyes. Catch sight of huge herds of elephant strolling amongst the sturdy baobabs. Your guide knows all the best places to look! While the park has some pretty spectacular wildlife all year long, the Tarangire River really hits its peak during the dry season. From June to October, it becomes a beacon for creatures from miles around when vast herds of buffalo gather at its banks to drink accompanied by the ever-hungry big cats.
