There are times when the desire to travel and see animals is interrupted due to the short time off we have. Recognizing that, we give you a short trip and with its brevity you will still be able to see the famous big 5 of Tanzania. If you think you don’t have enough days to make a trip, we assure you, with those few days, you will still make an unforgettable safari experience. Connect with other travelers by joining a group of up to six people in a car with everyone having a window seat for beautiful photos of the trip.
Day 1: Arrival in Arusha
Upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, a representative from your safari company will be there to greet you and transfer you to your hotel in Arusha. You can take the rest of the day to relax and get ready for your exciting adventure.
Day 2: Tarangire National Park
Enjoy breakfast before heading to Tarangire National Park, where you’ll have the chance to see huge herds of elephants, baobab trees, and breathtaking views of the Great Rift Valley.
