Discover the Untamed Beauty of Arusha National Park

Nestled just 32 kilometers from the bustling town of Arusha, Arusha National Park is a treasure trove of wildlife and natural beauty, waiting to be explored. As the sun rises on June 7th, embark on a day tour safari that promises to immerse you in the abundant flora and fauna of this captivating park. With the weather forecast predicting mild temperatures and partly cloudy skies, it’s the perfect day to venture into the wild.

The park is renowned for its diverse wildlife, including the elusive Colobus monkeys, graceful giraffes, and majestic elephants. As you traverse the park in a 4x4 Safari Jeep, guided by a professional driver, you’ll have the opportunity to witness the breathtaking Ngurdoto Crater and the serene Momella Lakes. The park’s birdlife is equally impressive, with waterfowl aplenty and, if you’re lucky, a spectacular display of flamingos on the big lake.

“Beautiful scenery with a fantastic guide! - After our other tour cancelled on us at the last minute, I got in touch with African Choice and they were able to set up a 1 Day Arusha Safari at short notice. Our guide, Nora, was fantastic and very knowledgeable about the wildlife and local ecosystem. I’m planning on returning for a longer safari in a year or two and will definitely book with African Choice again!” - Reviewed on 2020-03-11

This day tour is available from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, allowing you ample time to soak in the park’s natural wonders. Whether you’re a seasoned safari-goer or a first-time visitor, Arusha National Park offers an unforgettable experience that will leave you yearning for more.

Conquer the Majestic Mount Kilimanjaro

For those seeking a more challenging adventure, the Machame Route on Mount Kilimanjaro beckons. Known as the “Whiskey Route,” this trek offers a thrilling journey through diverse landscapes, from lush rainforests to frost-touched peaks. Starting on June 7th, this 7-day expedition is not for the faint-hearted, but the rewards are unparalleled.

As you ascend the mountain, you’ll traverse the Shira Plateau and join the Shira and Lemosho routes, all while enjoying some of the most spectacular scenery Africa has to offer. The Machame Route is favored for its high summit success rates, thanks to its “trek high & sleep low” approach, which aids in acclimatization.

With bottled water, meals, and accommodation in tents provided, this adventure ensures you’re well-prepared for the journey ahead. The mild weather and partly cloudy skies make for ideal trekking conditions, allowing you to fully appreciate the mountain’s beauty without the harsh glare of the sun.
