GUIDE TO TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK, TANZANIA – Lili’s Travel Plans – Travel Blog
The first great thing to add to your visit to Tarangire National Park is a walking safari. During this safari you’ll head out on foot to discover a part of the park where it’s safe to do so. You’ll be accompanied by a ranger for extra safety.
If you want to do a walking safari, I’d recommend spending at least 2 days in Tarangire National Park as you won’t have enough time to fully enjoy a game drive if you only have 1 day to do everything. Keep in mind that there’s an extra cost for a walking safari, on top of all other fees. For a short walk of max. 4 hours it’s 23,60 USD per adult for the actual walking safari as well as 23,60 USD per group for a ranger.
If you stay overnight, Tarangire offers night safaris and fly camping options. I’ve never done this myself so I can’t say more about it but it sounds great!
It’s also possible to do a hot air balloon flight over the park. It’s an adventure with a price tag, as flights are around 600 USD per person in a shared hot air balloon, but it’s an indescribable experience. The price includes a flight of about an hour, followed by a luxurious bush breakfast.
