Arusha National Park Safari: Wildlife, forests, lakes and mountain views—just outside Arusha.

You don’t always need to travel deep into Tanzania to feel close to nature. Arusha National Park offers a beautiful change of pace, where a morning can take you from open savannah to lush forest, peaceful lakes and the dramatic slopes of Mount Meru. It’s a safari that feels different from the vast plains of the Serengeti. The landscapes change quickly, the scenery is surprisingly diverse, and wildlife encounters can feel wonderfully intimate.
