Overview

Arusha National Park is one of Tanzania's best-kept secrets — tucked close to the Kenyan border near Arusha city, and home to Mount Meru, a genuinely popular climb for mountaineers who'd rather avoid Kilimanjaro's more crowded trails.

Less visited than the Serengeti or Ngorongoro Crater, Arusha National Park is well worth a day trip for its varied scenery — from the Momella Lakes to Ngurdoto Crater — and reliable wildlife including giraffe, buffalo, and colobus monkeys, all within easy reach of Arusha itself.

See our real Abakombe destination page for Arusha National Park, or contact us to book this day tour, including a tailored budget level to fit what you're looking for.

Like every itinerary Abakombe Tours and Safaris runs, this one is a starting point rather than a fixed package — tell us your dates and what matters most to you, and we'll adjust the route, pace and accommodation level to fit.
