Explore the wild heart of northern Tanzania on our 3 Day Tarangire Luxury Safari—a prime choice for discerning travellers seeking wildlife, comfort, and exclusivity. Beginning from Arusha, you’ll be whisked into Tarangire National Park, famed for its large elephant herds, iconic baobabs, and high bird density. Over three days, you’ll enjoy morning and evening game drives in open-top 4×4 vehicles guided by expert local rangers. Your nights are spent in superb luxury lodges or tented camps offering refined service, gourmet meals, and panoramic views of the bush.
This Tarangire luxury safari package also integrates optional extensions (for example, to the Serengeti or Ngorongoro), and connects well with our other Tanzania tours on ParadiseAfricaSafari.com (see our 7 Day Classic Safari or Northern Circuit Safari pages). We also reference authoritative external sources like the Tanzania National Parks Authority for park info. Visitors will appreciate that this itinerary is carefully paced—no rushed long transfers—and it’s optimized for photography, birding, and off-road wildlife viewing. Unique features include private sundowners in the bush, optional night drives, and flexibility for custom add-ons (balloon, walking safari).
Join us in 2026, 2027, or 2028 to discover Tarangire in its prime, from luxury lodging to immersive wildlife engagement. Ready to extend your adventure? See our other Tanzania Safari Packages or contact our team for a tailored quote.
Tarangire is part of the UNESCO-recognised migratory ecosystem that supports some of Africa’s richest biodiversity.
Day-by-Day Itinerary
Day 1 – Arrival & Afternoon Game Drive
You’ll be met early from Arusha (or Kilimanjaro) and head via scenic routes to Tarangire National Park. After a fresh lunch at your lodge or camp, enjoy your first afternoon game drive inside Tarangire. Expect to see large elephant herds, giraffes, zebra, buffalo and lions. As dusk falls, enjoy a bush sundowner, then return to your luxury lodge for dinner and overnight under African skies.
Day 2 – Full Day in Tarangire (Morning + Afternoon Drives)
Rise before dawn and set out for a morning game drive to catch predators at their most active. Return for brunch and time to rest or birdwatch from the lodge. In the afternoon, venture into less-traveled parts of the park, perhaps near seasonal swamps or floodplains, where rare species and abundant birdlife congregate. End the day with a sunset drive and a lavish dinner at the lodge.
Day 3 – Final Game Drive & Departure
Begin your last morning with an early game drive to capture those final sightings—maybe a leopard or hyena crossing. Return to camp for breakfast, then pack and depart Tarangire, stopping en route for scenic views or local Maasai villages. You’ll arrive back in Arusha (or your onward destination) by early afternoon, with enriching wildlife memories and high-quality photos in hand.
