The Arusha National Park, is a small (137 sq km) but beautiful African park. It is the closest Tanzanian National Wildlife Park to both the famous “safari town” of Arusha (32 km), as well as the Kilimanjaro International Airport, thus making it ideal for day safaris, even from Moshi (65 km). Not only is the wildlife in the Arusha National Park abundant, but it is also one of the most beautiful and topographically varied game reserves in Tanzania. Optional guided walking safari – It is possible to arrange guide walking safaris, escorted by an armed ranger in the Arusha National Park, subject to additional cost. For more information, please contact us. Optional canoe safari – It is possible to arrange a canoe safari in the Arusha National Park, subject to additional cost. For more information, please contact us.

We had an impressive trip with our guide Alex through Tanzania's national parks. Thanks to his excellent driving skills we were able to take great snapshots of the animals. Land, people and wildlife are worth a visit. We can only recommend this lovely young man, who was also very entertaining due to his good German. Thank you Alex, your country really impressed us. Our wishes were all fulfilled.
Part of our trip included a trip both the walking safari as well as a canoe ride in Arusha national park. This day trip adventure was great for getting up close and personal with giraffes and Cape Buffaloes. This is the second time we did the walking safari and it did not disappoint. You are accompanied by a park ranger and a guide who take you along the path about an hour around the grassland to see grazing cape buffaloes and giraffes to a nice waterfall. On a clear day you can see Mt. Kilimanjaro as well. On the canoe trip we were able to get pretty close to beautiful birds we saw hippos and and have a nice lunch by the water. We were lucky to get very close to giraffes who are pretty use to seeing people around and let you get pretty close. Beautiful day trip for young children and seniors with an effortless walk and very safe.
Absolutely stunning place, the fields are green cool climate exceeded my expectations in every way!!
