Overview
Tarangire National Park
One of the lesser-known national parks of Tanzania, Tarangire is rich in terms of wildlife diversity. But, Tarangire is an ideal safari destination for travelers who want to see more wildlife and less of the crowd.
The Tarangire national park is situated in the northern circuit of Tanzania. It is named after the river Tarangire which flows across the park and is a major source of water for the animals inside the park. It’s the best place in Tanzania to spot huge herds of elephants.
