Day Safari to Arusha National park highlight
- Game drive to watch wildlife in their natural habitat
- Enjoy the sight of Mt. Meru, the second highest peak in Tanzania
This day tour will take you to one of the best national parks in Tanzania – Arusha National Park.
We will depart from Arusha in the morning and drive to Arusha National Park. It takes 45 minutes to get to Momela gate.
The day is spent witnessing the wildlife and breathtaking views, though optional activities include walking to the foothills of Mt. Meru and Canoeing on the Momella lakes.
Return to Arusha in late afternoon hours.
The closest national park to Arusha town is northern Tanzania’s safari capital – Arusha National Park, The park is a multi-faceted jewel often overlooked by safari goers despite offering the opportunity to explore a beguiling diversity of habitats within a few hours.
The entrance gate leads into shadowy montane forest inhabited by inquisitive blue monkeys and colorful turacos and trogons – the only place on the northern safari circuit where the acrobatic black-and-white colobus monkey is easily seen. In the midst of the forest stands the spectacular Ngurdoto Crater, whose steep, rocky cliffs enclose a wide marshy floor dotted with herds of buffalo and warthog.
We will return to Arusha town in the evening.
