Arusha National Park

Arusha National Park is one of Tanzania’s smallest and most charming destinations, covering an area of 137 square kilometers. The Arusha National Park, located 15 kilometers from Arusha town, is between the peaks of Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Meru. This is the park where safari visitors come to completely immerse themselves in Tanzania Safari Tours.

The Arusha National Park is depicted as A Jewel Among Parks for its magnificence and striking decent variety of wildlife and natural surroundings. Its fantastic highlights incorporate the shallow antacid Momella Lakes, well known for their birdlife, both inhabitant and transient, particularly the flamingos; and the Ngurdoto Crater, a 3 Km wide whole caldera, whose wildlife closeness has earned it an epithet. Mount Meru, which towers over Little Ngorongoro and dominates the park at 4,566 meters, is Tanzania’s second highest peak and Africa’s fifth highest peak.

ARUSHA NATIONAL PARK FOOD

The buffet of culinary delights on offer is one of the countless positive drawbacks of being a combination of societies. With its diverse cuisine, Arusha truly is a foodie’s paradise. The traditional local and Tanzanian fare is augmented by the proximity of diverse Indian, Mediterranean, European, and Chinese cooking traditions. The Ethiopian delights supplied in the town’s numerous cafes pose a serious challenge to Ugali, a thick porridge made from maize flour. Locals prefer roasted bananas (ndizichoma), sweet potato, or bubbling cassava for breakfast, accompanied by chai. On the meat spread, Nyama Choma (grilled beef) is a local favorite, but there are also kebabs to whet your appetite.

Smile and greet folks with a pleasant Jambo! to start any conversation. Learning a few Swahili terms in Tanzanian language will help you break the ice in a variety of circumstances. Winter (June-September) is the coolest season, when many hotels and lodges are extremely busy, with July and August being the best months to visit Tanzania.
