Here, everything seems out of proportion, from the majestic baobabs that sculpt the landscape to the impressive herds of elephants for which the park is famous. Although popular with safari enthusiasts in northern Tanzania, Tarangire offers a rare tranquillity, especially as you venture south, where nature seems even more unspoilt. The park is home to a diverse range of wildlife, from big cats and zebras to hippos, buffalo, wildebeest and many other iconic species. If you're lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of the rare African wild dogs that occasionally frequent the park.
