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.
