Itinerary

Drive to Arusha National Park

This morning drive to Arusha National Park for game viewing. There is a good range of animal species represented; you can expect to see hippos, giraffes, zebras, warthogs, waterbucks, and bushbucks, although more interesting sightings such as reedbucks, leopards and hyenas are much more occasional. They are also quite alkaline and therefore, provide a year-round breeding area for flamingoes. Overnight Highview Hotel (with lunch, dinner & breakfast)
