Your safari begins after breakfast with a pick-up from your hotel in Arusha or Moshi by your professional guide from Origin Ventures and Safaris. You will drive to Arusha National Park, a hidden treasure known for its rare mix of mountains, forests, lakes, and wildlife all in one compact park.

Once inside the park, you will enjoy a scenic game drive around Momella Lakes and Ngurdoto Crater, where you may spot giraffes, buffalo, zebras, warthogs, waterbucks, and playful colobus monkeys in the forest canopy.

One of the highlights of the day is a guided walking safari with an armed ranger, giving you a rare chance to explore nature on foot. You will walk through lush forest trails, visit small waterfalls, and experience wildlife at close range in a safe and controlled environment.

You will descend over 600 meters into the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera, often called the “Eden of Africa”, where wildlife lives permanently inside the crater.

Here you will enjoy a full-day game drive in one of the best wildlife viewing areas in the world, with high chances of spotting the Big Five (lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and endangered black rhino) in a single safari.
