Tarangire, best known for its elephant families, savannah, iconic baobab trees, and seasonal swamps, is so named for the life-giving Tarangire River.  Animals gather at the river with the park being home to among the myriad creatures giraffe, bushbuck, hartebeest, buffalo, zebra, and wildebeest, all of whom are closely attended by a range of predators, leo panthera the lion, and his elusive cousin the leopard. From the open roof of our state of the art Safari Truck we will be able to absorb the landscape and watch the wildlife.  We enjoy a picnic lunch in the park, which includes a delicious varied repast, coffee, and soft drinks.
