Day Trip – Arusha NP

Located just 45 minutes’ drive from Arusha and 2 hours from Moshi Town, Arusha National Park is Tanzania’s most accessible park in more ways than one. While Arusha National Park has no large predators, it is home to Africa’s largest giraffe population, a variety of primate species, and a number of large herbivores. It’s the perfect day out for a family or those wanting something different from the standard game drive experience.The most accessible national park in Tanzania, Arusha National Park is just a short (1 hour) drive from Arusha proper.
While the park is not home to any big cats or larger mammals, it is an ideal place to spot buffalo, zebras, warthogs, and a variety of primates. In fact, Arusha National Park is the best place in Tanzania to spot black and white colobus monkeys.
With fewer dangerous animals to worry about, Arusha National Park is the ideal place to take a canoe safari or walking safari. With a picnic lunch prepared by our Company, this is the perfect way to start (or finish) a longer safari adventure.
At the time of writing, canoe safaris within Arusha National Park are temporarily not taking place.
