Tarangire National Park. This Park is famously known for its abundance of Ancient Baobab trees
(the largest trees in the continent) which fill the diverse landscape and dwarf the animals next to
them. The river of the park is full of wildlife ranging from a large variety of birds to lions,
leopards, zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes and, of course, elephants. This Park aslso has the
largest concentration of elephants in the whole country and provides unique chances to observe
the interaction between elephant families. During your game drive, you will have amazing views
of the river plus wildlife with good chances of seeing a hunt. Later in the afternoon, you will go

After an early breakfast, depart towards the most famous National park in the World, the
Serengeti. The driving itself, although long, is spectacular. As you progress well into the
Serengeti, you will see why the name means, in the local language, 'endless plains'. The park has
18,000 sq. km and for most of it, the plains will stretch to the horizon defying your senses and
perception of distances. It is the home of the Great Migration and to 2 million wildebeests,
hundreds of thousands of zebras and all kinds of antelopes including the abundant impalas and
Thomson's gazelles. As for Big Cats and large predators, it's the place of choice to look out for
lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas. Smaller animals like foxes, mongoose, honey badgers, jackals,
monkeys, baboons, rock hyrax and African hares, together with more than 500 species of birds,
also inhabit this park. If lucky, you will get to experience the famous river crossing in the Park.

approximately one hour and culminates with a lavish champagne breakfast amidst the
wilderness, rendering it an amazing and unforgettable expedition.
