Hoopoe's maps of Tanzanian parks
Hoopoe has a number of maps for parks in northern Tanzania: Serengeti,
Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara,
Tarangire, Arusha NP and Kilimanjaro.
They are good enough for navigating from.
You may want to buy these maps after arriving in Tanzania, as they are updated now and
then, and maps found abroad may not be the most recent versions.
The Hoopoe maps are available in souvenir shops, at park gates and from street vendors
in Arusha.
