After your arrival into Kilimanjaro International airport, your driver-guide will transfer you to Arusha. Tucked into the foothills of Mount Meru, Arusha is known as Tanzania’s safari gateway town due to its proximity to many of the country’s major national parks. Its pleasant temperate climate is ideal both for coffee-growing and for relaxing prior to a safari. Your first night is spent in Zawadi House, a boutique lodge, where you’ll receive an informative briefing about your forthcoming safari.
