Africa Safari Serengeti Ikoma

Africa Safari Serengeti Ikoma is located in the Ikoma Wildlife Management Area on the western edge of the Serengeti ecosystem in Tanzania, adjacent to the border of Serengeti National Park and connecting to the Grumeti Game Reserve, serving as a gateway for wildlife viewing in the Serengeti. One side of the camp is near the Grumeti River, where water sources attract animals year-round. Zebras, antelopes, elephants, and giraffes often pass by the tents. You can take an open-top safari vehicle deep into the savanna for a chance to encounter lions and leopards. During the migration season, herds of wildebeests and zebras pass through this area, creating a particularly spectacular scene. Game drives are the core activity, with animals being more active in the early morning and evening, increasing the chances of spotting large animals. Since it is located outside the national park boundary, you can also experience night game drives, which are not permitted within the park, to feel the completely different atmosphere of the savanna at night. In addition, there are guided walking safaris, as well as hot air balloon tours that take off in the early morning to overlook the Serengeti savanna.

No. 10 of Best Things to Do in Tanzania

Arusha National Park

Arusha National Park is located in northern Tanzania at the foot of Mount Meru. It was formerly known as Ngurdoto Crater National Park, established in 1960, and was renamed after Mount Meru was incorporated in 1967. The park concentrates three distinct views: Ngurdoto Crater and its surrounding rainforest, the Momella Lakes, and Mount Meru, which stands at an altitude of over 4,500 m. On clear days, you can also see the snow-capped peak of Mt Kilimanjaro from within the park. A major highlight here is that you can explore both on land and on water: there are few large predators like lions in the park, so visitors can hike through the rainforest and savanna with a guide to look for black-and-white colobus monkeys leaping through the canopy, or go canoeing on the Momella Lakes to observe hippos and flamingos from the water; buffaloes are commonly seen on the marshy grasslands below the crater, while giraffes and zebras are active across the savanna. Those with plenty of energy can challenge themselves to climb Mount Meru; reaching the summit usually takes several days, and along the way, you will experience a complete change in view from rainforest to alpine moorland.
