Tarangire National Park covers an undulating area of 2,600km2, between the plains of the Maasai Steppe to the south-east, and the lakes of the Great Rift Valley to the north and west. The northern part of Tarangire is dominated by the perennial Tarangire River, which flows north and west until it leaves the north-western corner of the park to flow into Lake Burungi. In the south are a series of vast swamps which dry into verdant plains during the dry season.
Entering the park you will realize without doubt, the most impressive feature of Tarangire is the park's elephant migration, when huge herds push through to Tarangire's river system and swamps during the dry season.
Tree-climbing lions are fairly common, Cheetah, however, are relatively rare. Other carnivores that roam the rolling acacia and baobab woodlands, riverine forests and dense grass, include hyena, jackal and wild dog, though wild dog are scarce and favour other areas within the Maasai Steppe.
In addition to the enormous amounts of elephant, the park is chock-full of wildebeest, zebra, eland, impala, greater and lesser kudu, dik-dik, Coke's hartebeest, Thomson's gazelle, giraffe, buffalo, reedbuck, waterbuck, warthog, hippopotamus, mongoose and rock hyrax! There are even a couple of unusual antelope species e.g the fringe-eared oryx and the gerenuk. Black rhino are very seldom seen here, but it is believed that a few individuals dwell in the more remote regions of the park.

The Ngorongoro crater is one of Africas animal dense areas, which makes it an ideal safari destination. The game drive safari experiences in Ngorongoro Crater involves getting into a 4X4 Safari Land Cruiser with Pop-up Roof and descend into the Crater through a lush highland forest, with magnificent birdlife to be seen in the different tree species. Off-track driving is not allowed in the conservation area.
The crater floor is grassy and attracts large numbers of herbivores like Zebra, Elephant, Wildebeest, and Buffalo, which are commonly spotted. Giraffes are occasionally spotted in this part of the conservation area. A real special of the crater is the Black Rhino, which is hard to spot in any other part of Tanzania. The crater also attracts large numbers of antelope species like Waterbuck, Impala, Topi, Oribi, Eland, Grants and Thomsons Gazelles. The water pools around the crater attract hippopotamus.
Carnivores are also in the crater, they are attracted by the large numbers of herbivores. Lion, Cheetah, Spotted Hyena, Black-backed and golden jackal are commonly spotted. Leopards sometimes visit the crater but are occasionally seen.
The Ngorongoro conservation area inhabits several bird species; notable birds in the crater include Black kite, Black-winged lapwing, Hildebrandt's spurfowl, Kenya rufous sparrow, Lesser flamingo.

From the entrance gate, the road winds through an expanse of lush jungle-like groundwater forest where hundred-strong baboon troops lounge nonchalantly along the roadside, blue monkeys scamper nimbly between the ancient mahogany trees, dainty bushbuck tread warily through the shadows, and outsized forest hornbills honk cacophonously in the high canopy.
Lake Manyara's game includes good numbers of elephant, buffalo and wildebeest along with plenty of giraffe. Also prolific in number are zebra, waterbuck, warthog and impala. You may need to search a little harder for the small and relatively shy Kirk's dik-dik, and klipspringer on the slopes of the escarpment. The broken forests and escarpment make it good country for leopard, whilst Manyara's healthy lion population are famous for their tree-climbing antics. (Whilst unusual, this isn't as unique to the park as is often claimed.) Immediately obvious to most visitors are the huge troops of baboons which often number several hundred and are widely regarded as Africa's largest.
As with the habitats, the birdlife here is exceptionally varied. In the middle of the lake you'll often see flocks of pelicans and the pink-shading of distant flamingos, whilst the margins and floodplains feed innumerable herons, egrets, stilts, stalks, spoonbills and other waders. With so much water around, the woodlands are equally productive, but it's the evergreen forests where you'll spot some more entertaining species such as the noisy silvery-cheeked hornbills, crowned eagles and crested guinea fowl.
