Day 1: Arusha
Karibu! Welcome to Tanzania. Your adventure begins in Arusha – your gateway to the incredible national parks of Tanzania. When you arrive at Kilimanjaro Airport, you’ll be met by a local representative and transferred to your hotel, where your adventure officially begins with a welcome meeting at 6 pm tonight. Located on the woodland slopes of Mount Meru, in the heart of a traditional coffee farm, your hotel offers fantastic views of Lake Duluti. If you arrive early, maybe visit the Natural History Museum or head to the Ngaramtoni Market to shop for handicrafts. After your meeting, join your leader and fellow travellers for a short walk to the shores of the lake, where you’ll find chairs and lamps set up for a private welcome dinner. Watch the sunset as you toast to the beginning of a new adventure.

After breakfast, you’ll travel to Tarangire National Park.

Your accommodation here is a permanent tented camp in the heart of the park with wonderful views of the Tarangire River. During the migration periods, you may see zebras, wildebeest and elephants passing by the veranda of your tent – a true African bush experience.
