After breakfast, your guide will meet you for a quick briefing, and then it's the drive south to Tarangire. Fun fact: the park takes its name from the Tarangire River and from the Mbugwe people who live nearby, with Tara meaning river and Ngire meaning warthog. In the dry months, the river draws the densest elephant population in northern Tanzania, and the baobabs make it the most distinctive-looking park on the circuit.
US$250 per person, as published on our existing site, as at 27 August 2026. Most of that goes on park and conservation fees, which the authorities set, not us. We'll confirm the exact figure in writing when you get in touch, so please don't treat this page as a quotation.
