Day Trip Arusha National Park

Arusha National Park is often ignored by travelers rushing to the more famous sights of the Ngorongoro Crater. However, with a little Park, Arusha National Park offers some beautiful walking in the foothills of Mount Meru and canoeing on the Momella Lakes, plus gentle game drives. If you have the time, just visit if for a day. There is a range of activities to do in Arusha National Park. This includes walking safaris which are always escorted by an armed ranger and last for a maximum of four hours, during which you would stop for a break at one of the park's gorgeous picnic sites. You can also discover the far reaches of the park by vehicle, taking in some of the lovely views and keeping an eye out for wildlife. Another great experience here and one not found in other safari parks in Tanzania is a canoeing safari which allows you to discover the Momella Lakes.
