A totally different vibe to this park from all the rest... the lush greenery, low hanging clouds, it's just a magical place. And the giraffes are rampant here!

Arusha is a special little park, easily explored in a day. In that wondrously diverse day, one can glimpse black and white colobus monkeys in trees on crater's edge. Cape buffalo graze the swampy crater floor, and flamingos pink the lake shores. The adventurous can walk the dramatic ridges of Mt. Meru.

Arusha is a little gem that most people forget when they drive off to the more wellknown parks. But this relatively small park is very nice indeed and you can see lots and lots of giraffes here.

Quite different from other parks. Sligthly less frequent to see the big animals which can be more frequently seen in the other parks of northerm tanzania, but great vegetation, lush and green. Nice experience that of canoeing on one odf the many lakes in the park. Not many options for accomodation. Easily reachable from Arusha. I'd consider to include a short (e.g. 2 days) visit to this park when staying for a safari of at least 10 days.
