5Great experience! Emanuel...
Great experience! Emanuel is a very knowledgeable guide. Up close to gariffe and learnt a lot about its habitat. Highly recommended!
5Amazing!
A great experience! We were picked up and dropped off in Arusha. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and passionate. Being so close to wild giraffes was a once in a lifetime experience.
5Fantastic experience
We absolutely loved this experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and explained the life of the giraffe. We also saw warthogs, zebra and buffalo. Our guide took us to the nearby waterfall as well. This was our first experience seeing giraffe in Tanzania and I would 100% recommend to everyone.
5Walking Tour with Giraffes
Daniel was our tour guide and taught us all about the giraffes. We got to see all four giraffes at once! He told us that they rehabilitate the giraffes and set them free once they are healed. Super cool & ethical experience! I would give yourself extra time to get there as it is quite out of the way.
5Up close with Giraffes
Had a fun visit to the Arusha Giraffe Centre in Tanzania. Our guide Daniel gave us an interesting and informative tour. Including analyzing giraffe poop!!
5Went on a whim
We were on our way back to Arusha from the ngorogoro crater (spent the night in Karatu) and stopped by on a whim to get our giraffe fix and we were not disappointed. To say this is a giraffe center is true but an understatement. This organization, in addition to helping restore the decreasing giraffe population, is also involved in research and education in sustainable farming practices for TZ. At this center you will earn about sustainable farming, capture of bio-gasses, preservation of giraffes and a litany of other things Also, you get to walk with giraffes. 🦒 there’s something about giraffes. These giraffes were very calm and content. We were about 10’ away at points and had no problems getting pictures. The guide did a good job in educating us on the different types of giraffes, how to identify gender and all sorts of good stuff. If you like nature, this trip is well worth your time. If you’re not going with a guide or it’s your guides first time, once you turn off the main road… keep going… and keep going. When you get to the Presbyterian church with a giraffe center sign… keep going lol.
