Highlights

If you don’t have a lot of time but want to get an idea of what the world of safari has to offer, this one-day safari is a great opportunity! The landscape of Arusha National Park is very diverse: from Mt Meru to the Momella Lakes to the Ngurdoto Crater, making it home to an equally diverse range of wildlife. You may see giraffes, hippos, zebras, warthogs, fish eagles, colobus monkeys and many more. You travel with an expert local guide who will share many facts and interesting anecdotes about the resident wildlife. We pick you up at your hotel in Arusha and take you back again after the trip.

Itinerary

  1. In the morning, we will collect you from your hotel in Arusha and take you to the Arusha National Park. The park has an incredible variety of fauna and flora, which cannot fail to impress. Hollywood also chose this region to film the movie “Hatari”, in which Hardy Kruger starred alongside the legendary John Wayne. Your day trip will include a visit to the Ngurdoto Crater. Buffaloes, waterbucks, giraffes, warthogs, zebras and baboons can be seen all year round, as well as many different bird species. At the Momella Gate, an armed ranger will be waiting for you to accompany you on the walking safari, which will give you a chance to experience the wildlife up close. Only a few other national parks in Tanzania give you such an opportunity, and it is something that should not be missed. Lunch will be taken at a picnic place and in the afternoon, you will continue your tour in the safari vehicle through the Arusha National Park. After plenty of time allocated for you to observe the wildlife

About Arusha

Arusha, in northern Tanzania beneath Mount Meru, is the starting point for safaris to the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire.

The town sits on the green lower slopes of Mount Meru, Tanzania's second-highest peak, with coffee farms and banana groves on its outskirts and a busy central market at its heart. Arusha National Park, just outside town, offers walking safaris, canoeing on the Momella Lakes, colobus monkeys in the forest and the climb up Meru itself.
