About this experience
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.
