Day 1: Tarangire National Park expand_more
This morning, after breakfast, drive to Tarangire National Park and spend the afternoon exploring the park with game drives. The park is cut through by the Tarangire River, which proves a magnet for all wildlife during the long dry season when the surrounding area becomes completely parched.
During the wet season, the wildlife is more scattered but still guarantee some sightings of Tarangire’s extensive elephant population. Large herds roam the riverbed whilst zebra, buffalo, gazelle, and wildebeest try to avoid the predatory advances of lion and leopard. There is also a remarkable profusion of birdlife as the Tarangire swamps are home to 550 bird varieties, including many rare species.
Overnight at Eileen's tree inn or similar.

Along the way, stop at the Olduvai Gorge. This is a steep-sided ravine in the heart of the Great Rift Valley and is famous for the variety of early hominid fossils that have been found here.
There is an excellent museum here; it is very small but informative and well worth the stop.
