About this Safari
You’ll be staying in a pared-back mobile camp on the greater Tarangire ecosystem, near the Lolkisale Mountain, where you will ride amongst zebra, giraffe, lesser kudu, and other plains game. There are numerous Maasai villages in this area, seldom seen or visited by tourists, which can be visited as part of your ride for those interested in learning more about Maasai culture.
The area is located southwest of Arusha and east of Tarangire National Park, making this adventure easy to fit into the start of any safari. This trip is designed for intermediate – strong riding levels but accommodates riders who would find three full days of riding too strenuous.
