Arusha National Park Day

Arusha National Park Day

Arusha National Park lies 35 Kilometers out of Arusha City, the little-known jewel of Tanzania. At its heart is the 4566m Mount Meru, Arusha National Park is less visited than the more famous Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, but it’s for you if you want a beautiful landscape with an incredible variety of flora and fauna.

It has an awe-inspiring blend of vegetation which includes swamp, grasslands and montane forest and, of course, the mountain slopes of Meru which are swathed in tropical rainforest. It’s a unique eco-system that attracts thousands of animals and birds especially pink flamingoes.

This Day trip will give you an opportunity of getting up close and personal to the animals on a walking safari, but also lets you take in the landscapes on a glorious game drive.

After breakfast we depart

Arusha City or Moshi Town at 8:00 am for the drive to Arusha National Park. Once you arrive, you’ll stretch your legs on an 

out-of-this-world walking safari, accompanied by a ranger who will guide you through rainforest up to a sparkling waterfall where you’ll be able to spot black and white colobus monkeys going about their day. After a tasty

lunch on the picnic site you’ll hop in the Land Cruiser for a game drive that will take you through a wider scope of the park, including the 

Lakes of Momella  dotted with pin flamingoes

and the Ngurduto Crater, and you’ll most likely spot 

buffalo, waterbuck, giraffe, warthogs, zebra and gazelle as well as a host of different bird species. If you’re lucky you’ll catch a glimpse of the shy leopard or elephant. Don’t forget your camera! After the drive, you’ll be driven back to ARusha City or Moshi Town.
