Huge herds of elephants are a distinctive feature of Tarangire, but the grassland, swamps, and floodplains found here are home to big cats, giraffe, baboons, and hippo – plus many, many more species. Tree-climbing lions and rock pythons are other local specialties. Around evening you will leave the Tarangire and head to the Lodge/Camp, where you will spend the night.
