Tour Overview

Arusha National Park, located just across the Kenyan border from the bustling city of Arusha, is Tanzania's little-known jewel. At its core sits 4566m Mount Meru, a popular destination for mountaineers looking to avoid the well-trodden slopes of Kilimanjaro. Arusha National Park is less visited than the more well-known Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, but it is ideal for those seeking a stunning environment with an astounding variety of flora and fauna - but with fewer people!

Arusha National Park has an awe-inspiring blend of vegetation which includes swamp, grasslands and montane forest and, of course, the mountain slopes of Meru which are swathed in tropical rainforest. It’s a unique eco-system that attracts thousands of animals and birds. Our Forgotten Pearl Day Safari will give you the opportunity of getting up close and personal to the animals on a walking safari, but also lets you take in the landscapes on a glorious game drive.

Tour Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 | Arusha National Park

In the morning, we will collect you from your hotel in Arusha and take you to the Arusha National Park. The park has an incredible variety of fauna and flora, which cannot fail to impress. Hollywood also chose this region to film the movie “Hatari”, in which Hardy Kruger starred alongside the legendary John Wayne. Your day trip will include a visit to the Ngurdoto Crater. Buffaloes, waterbucks, giraffes, warthogs, zebras and baboons can be seen all year round, as well as many different bird species. At the Momella Gate, an armed ranger will be waiting for you to accompany you on the walking safari, which will give you a chance to experience the wildlife up close. Only a few other national parks in Tanzania give you such an opportunity, and it is something that should not be missed. Lunch will be taken at a picnic place and in the afternoon, you will continue your tour in the safari vehicle through the Arusha National Park. After plenty of time allocated for you to observe the wildlife, we will take you back to Arusha.

From budget-friendly camping adventures to extravagant luxury getaways, these safaris are designed to suit every traveler’s taste and comfort level.

When to Experience This Tour!

The best time for this Tanzania safari Adventure is during the dry season, from June to October, when wildlife viewing reaches its peak. During these months, the Serengeti comes alive with the dramatic spectacle of the Great Migration as millions of wildebeest and zebras cross the plains, often followed by prowling predators. The dry conditions also draw animals to waterholes, making it easier to spot them in iconic parks like Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater. For bird enthusiasts, the green season from November to May is equally captivating, with lush landscapes and vibrant migratory birds in abundance. Tanzania’s diverse offerings ensure that, no matter the time of year, every safari promises unforgettable moments in the heart of the wild.
