One of the oldest properties in the park, perched on a bluff above the Tarangire River with what is widely regarded as one of the finest viewpoints in the whole park - elephants and game often visible from your veranda.
Tarangire Safari Lodge enjoys a spectacular escarpment position overlooking the river, where animals gather year-round. Accommodation is in simple, comfortable safari tents and bungalows under thatch, with an unpretentious, classic-safari feel. It remains a firm favourite for its location and the sheer density of wildlife visible right from camp.
Flying in
The nearest airstrip is Kuro (Tarangire), about 45 min by road from the lodge. See the real fly-in routes and how the rest of the region connects on the Getting Around map.
