The park is particularly known for the abundance of ancient Baobab trees & having the largest concentration of elephants and provides unique chances to observe the interaction between elephant families.
We will do a game drive through the park depending on where they are reported sightings of animals (mostly predators, lions, cheetahs & leopards as they are harder to spot) as herbivores (giraffes, wildebeest, zebras, etc. are plenty to see through the park. Later on, will go to the Tarangire river picnic site and enjoy the beautiful view of the river & animals while having lunch, small monkeys & baboons will try to scare you off your lunch but there is nothing to worry about.
