Arusha Tour Packages

Nestled at the foot of Mount Meru, Arusha is far more than just the bustling gateway to Tanzania's northern safari circuit; it's a vibrant, chaotic city with a charm all its own, often called the "Geneva of Africa."

Arusha features a brisk atmosphere, cooler temperatures, and lush surroundings that offer the perfect introduction to the Tanzanian experience. It is a place where bustling, colourful markets spill onto the streets, and the scent of fresh coffee hangs in the air, creating a truly authentic East African feel that is often overlooked by those rushing to the Serengeti.

Places to Visit in Arusha

Arusha is packed with hidden gems that offer a fantastic introduction to local culture and nature. Spend time at the Arusha Cultural Heritage Centre, which houses an incredible, massive art gallery showcasing Tanzanian history and crafts. 

Wander through Soko Kuu (the Central Market) for an intense, colourful sensory experience, or browse for local treasures at the Maasai Market. A short, scenic hike to the Meru Waterfalls or a peaceful afternoon canoeing on Lake Duluti offer a serene escape from the city's hustle. Finally, don't miss a coffee farm tour in the lush surrounding slopes.
