Highlights

Tucked just this side of the Kenyan border and near the busy city of Arusha lies the little-known jewel of Tanzania, Arusha National Park. At its heart is the 4566m Mount Meru, popular with mountaineers avoiding the too-well-trodden paths of Kilimanjaro. 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 – but fewer people! Arusha National Park 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 ecosystem that attracts thousands of animals and birds. Our Forgotten Pearl Day Safari will allow you to get up close and personal with the animals on a walking safari but also lets you take in the landscapes on a glorious game drive.
