Your guide will pick you up from your hotel in Arusha or Moshi after breakfast. Drive to Arusha National Park (approx. 45 min–1.5 hrs), passing through local villages and scenic countryside. Enter the park and begin your safari adventure.
Enjoy a game drive through the lush forests and open plains of the park. Spot giraffes, zebras, warthogs, and monkeys. Then, take a guided walking safari with a park ranger — a rare chance to explore the bush on foot and learn about the plants and animals up close.
After lunch (picnic or lodge, based on preference), you may opt for a peaceful canoeing session on Momella Lake (extra fee), where you can see flamingos and hippos from the water. Later, drive back to your hotel and arrive by late afternoon or early evening.
