Safari in Tarangire National Park, Africa | Photo Journal #2 - KoTravellers

Welcome to our second photo journal on Tarangire, Africa. We had so many photos we wanted to share with you guys and unfortunately we can’t share them all on Instagram so decided to post another photo blog!

// Photo Journal Two //

After travelling almost 24 hours from Sydney, Australia we arrived to Kuro Airstrip in Tarangire National Park. We could barely contain our excitement as we walked out of our small air craft. Day one consisted of two game drives, one before lunch and one before sunset. Tarangire National Park is known as ‘Elephants Paradise’ and you will see from our photos below where that name comes from!

We hope you all enjoy.
