Arusha National Park — Day Safari

1 Days · 0 Nights

·

Tanzania’s most accessible national park, an hour from town. Morning game drive among giraffe, buffalo, and colobus monkey; afternoon canoe paddle on Momela Lakes between flamingo flocks and surfacing hippos; back to Arusha for dinner. A perfect first-day-on-arrival warm-up before the bigger circuits — or a self-contained day for travelers short on time.
