This experience offers a more complete and relaxed way to explore Arusha National Park in just one day. Instead of only doing a traditional game drive, you’ll experience the park in three different ways — on foot, by canoe, and in a safari vehicle.
Walk through the park with an armed ranger while getting surprisingly close to giraffes, zebras, buffalo, and other wildlife in their natural environment. Continue with a peaceful canoe safari across the Momella Lakes, surrounded by flamingos, hippos, and beautiful views of Mount Meru before finishing the day with a scenic game drive through forests, open plains, and crater landscapes.
Because the park is smaller and less crowded than many northern safari parks, the experience feels quieter, more personal, and closer to nature — perfect for travelers who want something active, scenic, and different from a standard safari.
