Tarangire National Park and Mto wa Mbu
Drive from your hotel in Moshi or Arusha to Tarangire National Park, a journey of about two hours. This park is spectacular in the dry season, when many migratory wildlife species return to the permanent waters of the Tarangire River.
Spot huge herds of wildebeest, zebras, elephants, elands, and oryx gathering in Tarangire until the onset of the monsoon, when they migrate again to better grazing areas.
In the late afternoon, drive to the Lake Manyara region and the small town of Mto wa Mbu for dinner and an overnight stay.
