Walking safaris in Arusha
National Park offer tourists

Walking safaris in Arusha National Park offer tourists a rare opportunity to explore Tanzania’s natural beauty on foot in a safe and guided environment. Accompanied by experienced armed rangers, visitors can walk through lush forests, open grasslands, and along the slopes of Mount Meru. The park is home to a variety of wildlife, including giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, warthogs, and colobus monkeys, all of which can often be seen at close range during the walk. One of the highlights is the walk to the Ngurdoto Crater rim, offering stunning views of the crater floor below. Bird enthusiasts will enjoy spotting flamingos and other species near the Momella Lakes. These guided walks provide a unique chance to learn about animal tracks, medicinal plants, and the local ecosystem from knowledgeable guides. It’s a peaceful, educational, and adventurous experience that brings tourists closer to nature than a traditional game drive allows.While on safari in Tanzania, a visit to Lake Eyasi offers tourists a rare and fascinating cultural experience with the Hadzabe and Datoga tribes. Nestled in the Great Rift Valley, Lake Eyasi is home to the Hadzabe, one of the last remaining hunter-gatherer tribes in Africa. Visitors can join them on early morning hunts using traditional bows and arrows, witnessing their survival skills and ancient way of life. The Hadzabe live in harmony with nature, relying on wild fruits, honey, and game for food. Nearby, the Datoga tribe—skilled blacksmiths and cattle herders—welcome tourists into their homesteads. Guests can observe metalwork demonstrations, traditional dances, and learn about Datoga customs and family structures. These cultural encounters offer a deep and respectful insight into Tanzania’s indigenous communities. Visiting Lake Eyasi and its tribes adds a rich, human dimension to any safari, connecting travelers with Tanzania’s living history and cultural diversity.
