Lake Chala Adventure from Moshi

  • Your friendly guide will arrive at your accommodation with your tasty packed lunch. Then, he or she will take you by transport to Lake Chala Safari Camp.
  • On the way, you'll enjoy seeing the everyday life of the Chagga people. You will also have a chance to relax and take in the attractive, comforting scenery.
  • Reach Lake Chala Safari Camp, a beautiful private game reserve overlooking Lake Chala. Head down to the lakeside through lush green flora, with the blue lake stretching out ahead of you. It's a stunning and spectacular area, perfect for hikers and birdwatchers, and in season you might be lucky enough to spot elephants gathering at a distant waterhole.
  • Spend the day wandering the paths around the lake or across the nearby savannah, where you're likely to see baboons, vervet monkeys, and blue monkeys, as well as perhaps the shy dik-dik and graceful kudu.
  • If you're feeling a little more active, you can jump into a kayak and explore the lake further. You'll be serenaded by birdsong and the gentle plashing of the water as you row.
  • After enjoying the marvellous adventures at Lake Chala, you'll be driven back to Moshi in the late afternoon.

This is the perfect ending to the tour.
