Tanzania Arusha legendary lodge mount Meru

Rest and recuperate, or live it up in this picturesque town at the base of a mountain.

Arusha is the jump-off point for most safaris to Tanzania’s northern circuit. The town itself is home to numerous coffee plantations, in the shadow of nearby Mount Meru.

Kilimanjaro international airport is less than an hour away and Arusha airport connects to all the safari destinations in the north.

You may spend a night or two here before visiting Ngorongoro Highlands, Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara or Serengeti National Park.
