Arusha: the safari capital of East Africa. The small district of Arusha is the gateway to the great game parks of the north and is the hub of Tanzania's buoyant safari industry.
Nestling at the foot of Mount Meru, the town of Arusha is the first stop on the northern safari circuit. Bustling and vibrant, the streets are filled with 4X4 game viewing vehicles criss-crossing the pot-holed roads. Masai warriors in full regalia stroll around, mingling with tourists in crisp khaki, fresh off the plane from Europe or the United States

The Arusha National Park, lying between the peaks of Kilimanjaro and Meru, is a small but beautiful park that has an abundance of fauna and flora. Everywhere throughout the Park there are chances to observe the natural world at its own pace, to see different animals in their various habitats and absorb something of the serenity of the surroundings. Ascend the majestic Mt. Kilimanjaro and view the magnificent Rift Valley.
