Day 1 : Drive from Moshi to Arusha National Park

Be sure to fuel up with a hearty breakfast as we kick off our adventure from the bustling market town of Moshi promptly at 8:00 am. Our destination? The enchanting Arusha National Park, just an hour’s drive away. Upon arrival, prepare to embark on an extraordinary walking safari, led by a knowledgeable ranger who will lead you through the lush rainforest to a mesmerizing waterfall. Keep your eyes peeled for the elusive black and white colobus monkeys as they play amidst the treetops.

After indulging in a delicious lunch, it’s time to climb aboard our trusty Land Cruiser for an exhilarating game drive. Our route will take us on a journey through the diverse landscapes of the park, encompassing the tranquil Lakes of Momella and the majestic Ngurduto Crater. Along the way, keep your camera at the ready as we encounter an array of wildlife, from imposing buffalo and graceful giraffes to spirited warthogs, striped zebras, and elegant gazelles. And let’s not forget the vibrant birdlife that fills the air with their melodious songs.

With luck on our side, we may even catch a glimpse of the elusive leopard or the mighty elephant, adding an extra thrill to our safari experience. As the sun begins to set, we’ll reluctantly bid farewell to this natural paradise and make our way back to Moshi, with memories captured and hearts full from a day spent in the wild.
