Itinerary and highlights
Most visitors see Arusha National Park from behind glass. You'll be in it — breathing it, feeling it, living it. This is the only way to truly appreciate the scale of the 137 sq km park, from its ancient Ngurdoto Crater rim and open savannah to its dense montane forest corridors alive with black-and-white colobus monkeys. Feel the thrill of being part of this vibrant landscape and ignite your curiosity to experience it yourself.
Your expert local guide — a certified, experienced wilderness rider with deep knowledge of the park's terrain and ecology — will lead you through a hand-picked route designed for maximum adventure and wildlife sightings. Trust in their expertise to make you feel safe and confident, ensuring a memorable journey that exceeds expectations.
