Day 01
Arusha National Park Safari and Walking Tour
- We will gather early at dawn and head to the beguiling and often overlooked Arusha National Park. Arusha is a jewel of Tanzania, with a variety of plant and animal life that will make you hold your breath.
- You will explore the shores of tranquil Lake Momella, which reflects the colours of the sky in its still waters, and experience the vibrancy of the bronzed bush, where Ngurduto Crater buffalo, waterbuck, giraffe, warthogs, zebra, and gazelle busy themselves. These animals are residents throughout the year, so you are bound to see diverse wildlife everywhere you turn. The elusive leopards and elephants tend to be shy at Arusha, but there is a good chance of spotting them too.
- You will also have a chance to set out on foot for a fascinating walk, as it is a different sensation to feel Africa's vibrant pulse through the soles of your shoes. At a slower pace, you can begin to understand Africa more deeply.
- You will get up close and personal with the flora and fauna while staying safe, accompanied by an armed ranger who will guide you through lush forest to the clear springs of a sparkling waterfall. Arusha National Park's rangers are highly regarded, and as you stroll, you will learn so much about the park's biodiversity. You may also instantly spot a troop of black and white colobus monkeys, famous in the park for their acrobatics. Then, you will return to Arusha.
