Arusha National Park on our safaris

Located in northeastern Tanzania, Arusha National Park sits against the breathtaking backdrop of Mount Meru and offers stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro. Covering 552 square kilometers, the park is known for its extraordinary landscapes and excellent walking and trekking opportunities. It is made up of three main areas: the impressive Mount Meru volcanic cone, the lush Ngurdoto Crater with its “lost world” feel, and the colorful Momela Lakes. The park’s diverse habitats support a wide variety of wildlife, including giraffes, Cape buffalo, zebras, warthogs, monkeys, flamingos, and many more, making it a perfect place to enjoy both game drives and nature walks.
