Safari & Activities

Tarangire Treetops offers a range of exceptional wildlife experiences, with access to both the Tarangire National Park and the surrounding private concession, ensuring exclusivity and a variety of activities. Guests can embark on traditional game drives, where the park’s large elephant herds, lions, leopards, and other wildlife can be observed in their natural habitat. The park is also renowned for its birdlife, making it a haven for bird enthusiasts.

  • Night Drives: Unlike many parks in Tanzania, the private concession surrounding Tarangire Treetops allows for night game drives. This offers a rare opportunity to witness the nocturnal behaviors of species such as lions, leopards, and hyenas, adding a thrilling dimension to the safari experience.

  • Walking Safaris: For a more immersive adventure, guests can take guided walking safaris with experienced Maasai guides. These walks allow for a closer connection to the land, plants, and animals, offering insights into the ecosystem that game drives cannot provide.

  • Cultural Visits: The lodge is located near local Maasai villages, and cultural visits offer guests a chance to engage with Maasai traditions and learn about their way of life. These visits provide a unique cultural experience that complements the wildlife focus of the safari.

Sundowners & Bush Dining

A quintessential part of the safari experience is enjoying sundowners as the African sun sets over the plains. Tarangire Treetops offers unforgettable sundowner experiences in scenic locations, where guests can enjoy a drink while watching the golden hues of the sunset. Bush dining is another highlight, where meals are served in the heart of the wilderness, often accompanied by Maasai warriors, creating a truly memorable dining experience
