Why this Package
This 3-Day safari tour plan zeroes in on Tarangire, where the dry season attracts impressive herds of wildlife, particularly elephants, drawn to the park's iconic baobabs and water sources. Your adventure begins in Arusha and returns there, ensuring a seamless experience.
During your stay at Burunge Tented Lodge, nestled in the Burunge Wildlife Management Area, you will enjoy a blend of comfort and nature. The lodge features spacious tented rooms with en-suite bathrooms, mosquito nets, and fans, all set on raised platforms to enhance your experience. The main area boasts a pool and stunning views of the lake, perfect for families or small groups seeking a tranquil atmosphere.
Meals at Burunge are thoughtfully prepared, with buffet or plated breakfasts designed for early starts, well-packed picnic lunches for your full days of exploration, and relaxed dinners enjoyed on the deck, accompanied by firelight and gentle lake breezes. This setting allows you to unwind after a day of thrilling game drives.
Access to Tarangire is convenient, with the Sangaiwe Gate just a short drive away, allowing you to maximize your time in the park. The west side of Tarangire offers beautiful landscapes with fewer vehicles, ideal for observing wildlife during the cooler morning hours when activity peaks. For those looking to explore further, consider a visit to the Ngorongoro Crater for breathtaking views and diverse wildlife.
Overall, this safari is perfect for first-timers or those combining their adventure with a trek up Mount Kilimanjaro or a relaxing beach escape in Zanzibar.
Mid-Range Tanzania Safari
Book with the Right Tour Operator
