A 2-day Tanzania safari is a perfect short adventure that takes you to two of the most famous wildlife destinations in northern Tanzania: Tarangire National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater. Starting from Arusha, you will explore Tarangire, a beautiful park known for its giant baobab trees and the largest population of elephants in Tanzania. The park’s open savannah and the Tarangire River attract many animals including giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, buffaloes, and predators such as lions and cheetahs.
