ITINERARY
Day 1
Arusha - Welcome to Tanzania

Upon arriving at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be warmly greeted by your PrimeKilimanjaro driver, who will be waiting to welcome you and assist with your luggage. From there, you’ll be transferred in a private vehicle to the city of Arusha.

Nestled in a lush, fertile landscape with the majestic Mount Meru as its backdrop, Arusha seamlessly blends natural beauty with vibrant urban energy. As a thriving city, it offers a perfect mix of modern charm and traditional allure, serving as the gateway to Tanzania’s rich wildlife, cultural treasures, and unforgettable adventures.

Day 2
ARUSHA - TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK

You'll depart from Arusha after breakfast for the approximately two hour drive to Tarangire National Park. Along the way you'll pass bustling Masai villages and the vast, open plains that have become synonymous with images of Africa.

Once you've entered Tarangire, you'll begin your game drive across a rich vista of endless golden savannah that surrounds the Tarangire River. The river itself runs throughout the year and is a vital source of water for the animals of the region during the dry season. Lined with acacia and Baobab trees, the river is regularly visited by the park's large elephant population as well as other herbivores such as zebras and antelopes.

A picnic lunch with a view of the river is a great way to take it all in, but you'll have to keep on your toes as the local monkey population does its best to separate you from your lunch!

Driving through the park you'll also have the opportunity to see lions, leopards, cape buffalo, and a huge variety of antelopes. If you're particularly lucky, you might even see endangered animals such as the Greater Kudu or the Fringe-Eared Oryx.

After your day's drive is done, you'll retire to your accommodation for the evening.
