1-Day Arusha National Park Day Trip
Tanzania's most underrated park - giraffes, colobus monkeys, canoeing on Momella Lake, and views of Kilimanjaro.
TOUR OVERVIEW
Most visitors drive past Arusha National Park on their way to the Northern Circuit. They are missing one of Tanzania's most rewarding day trips. The park is home to giraffes, zebras, warthogs, buffalo, and four species of colobus monkey. We can add a canoeing excursion on Momella Lake (with hippos and flamingos), a forest walk to a waterfall, and a climb to Mount Meru's lower slopes for views of Kilimanjaro.
Tanzania’s most underrated park. A single day, a lifetime of memories, and a fraction of the crowds.
