Sunglasses, hats, suntan lotion, freshen-up towels and mosquito repellents, creams are a must. Carry a camera, plenty of films, replacement batteries and pairs of binoculars. Baggage should be kept to a minimum. Soft bags are the best.
Tarangire National Park
It is the vast number of baobabs that first capture the eye as you enter Tarangire Park. The gently rolling countryside is dotted with these majestic trees, which seem to dwarf the animals that feed beneath them. The Park is spectacular in the dry season when many of the migratory wildlife species come back to the permanent waters of Tarangire river. A drive along the Tarangire river will offer you plenty opportunities to watch huge herds of wildebeests, zebras, elephants, elands, impalas, buffaloes and many others which have come to drink water and will continue to stay in the park until the onset of the rains when they start moving out again.

It is a clockwise migratory movement during which sequence, the animals start arriving at the eastern Serengeti short grass plains in late November - December, where calving of the wildebeests takes place. At the end of the long rains, the migration heads westwards and then turns north to reach Masai Mara reserve in late August - September

The lake dominates this park and the beautiful cool lush of the mature ground water forest. Primates including baboons, blue and verve monkeys are among the most dominant mammalian species in the park. Serengeti National Park is undoubtedly the best-known wildlife sanctuary in the world, unequalled for its natural beauty and scientific value. Within its boundaries are more than 3 million large mammals living in total freedom on the "endless" plains (as Serengeti means in Maasai language) dotted with rock outcrops, patches of Acacia bush, forest and seasonal small rivers.
