Arusha is Tanzania’s “safari town” being the gateway to the wonderful northern parks. The climate is excellent and the town sits beautifully within the foothills of Mount Meru.
A really pleasant environment where many people will spend a night or two before heading off on safari or climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. There are some very comfortable and friendly lodges which are the perfect place to relax and recover either just after you arrive or before you leave.
The centre of town of Arusha is pretty busy with the excitement of safari goers and the trucks driving through with provisions for the parks. We tend to recommend lodges a little out of town to take in the ambience of your surroundings.
Below are the lodges we recommend for a restful first night in Africa:
Rivertrees Country Inn, Mount Meru Game Lodge, Ngare Sero, Machweo Lodge
Lodges close to Kilimanjaro Airport :
Kia Lodge, Planet Lodge
An often missed gem is the stunningly beautiful Arusha National Park, less that an hour from the town centre, where you can enjoy lovely walks within the foothills of Mt.Meru, with clear views of Kilimanjaro, attractive lakes and a spectacular volcanic crater.
