Tarangire Day Trip

Pick up from your hotel in Moshi at 6:30am and drive to Tarangire National Park (approx. 3 hr drive) for a game drive with the opportunity to see large groups of elephants that make this national park famous. Tarangire is home to many large iconic Baobab trees, giving you some picture perfect African landscapes. You will enjoy a picnic lunchbox inside the park during your game drive before you commence your return to Moshi mid afternoon (arriving approx. 5-6pm).

Our safari guides are all well experienced in the field and passionate about showing you the amazing wildlife and culture Tanzania has to offer. All are fluent in English, and if you have a special language request just let us know as many will also have an additional language (e.g. French, Spanish, German). They are also well trained in 4×4 driving so will be able to get you anywhere on the varying road qualities we have here! Please feel free to ask your guide any questions you may have about the wildlife, culture or trip along the way.

4×4 Safari Landcruiser with 7 seats. Our safari vehicles have been specifically modified for wildlife viewing, with a pop top roof which will be open during all game drives and sliding windows. Our cars are equipped with a radio system for guide communication with base and park rangers. We carry at least one pair of binoculars in each vehicle.

Although we do everything within our powers to ensure your maximum comfort, the roads in Tanzania can vary greatly in quality from newly tarmacced to completely rough and muddy or dusty (depending on rainy or dry season!). Driving times can be long, even to cover what may seem like relatively short distances. Although we regularly maintain our vehicles (with a check-up in the garage after every safari) they can and do sometimes pop a tyre or breakdown. Our guides are well trained with lots of experience in car mechanics and 98% of the time can fix the issue themselvesand you’ll be off spotting zebras again in less than 20 minutes! Please be patient if your car encounters a mechanical issue

A great area of confusion and unease for many tourists, tipping is a generally expected and highly appreciated (although not compulsory) part of your safari tour. It is a great way of saying ‘thank you’ to those that have helped you to have a wonderful experience here. Tips should be given at the end of your safari when saying your goodbyes. If you are part of a group safari it is best to try to discuss with everyone beforehand how you wish to do the tipping. To help you feel at ease we have provided a general guide below but please remember that tipping is a way of you showing your gratitude for your safari staff and is up to you! The guidelines given below are for a group amount, not individually.

  • Natural coloured clothing (we advise not to wear blue or black as this attracts the Tsetse flies)
  • Hat and sunscreen
  • Camera and SD card
  • Binoculars (optional – the guide will have one pair).

Included in cost:

  • Transportation with Driver/Guide During Safari
  • Lunch

  • All Park Fees

The price does not include

  • Costs of a Personal Nature

  • Tips to your Driver/Guide During Safari
