2-Day Dik-Dik: Arusha and Ngorongoro Crater

Different from others Tanzania safaris, this program includes a walking safari in Arusha National Park. Guests design their own walk in difficulty or duration and have the option to walk through a rainforest, step foot on the base on Mount Meru, pass through wild animals grazing along the open plains and end at the Tululusia waterfall. The following day, the safari continues in Ngorongoro Crater, the famous UNESCO World Heritage Site with the richest diversity of wild animals per square kilometer on earth. This quick trip allows guests a taste of Tanzania in just two days. You stay at a top-rated hotel in Arusha and a beautiful lodge near Ngorongoro. The safari is lead by an expert driver-guide, who is ready to share more in-depth knowledge about the African wildlife you’re sure to see on this safari.

- By default our tours include shared accommodation in twin/double rooms, unless requested and agreed otherwise. Single supplement is available upon request. Please refer to the program to see your accommodation arrangements
- Moshi and Arusha-based accommodations usually include breakfast only, unless requested and agreed otherwise. Please refer to the program to see your meal plans on each night
- Most safari lodges usually do not include tea, coffee, soft and alcoholic drinks not to have you overpay for beverages you don't need. You will be able to order and pay for drinks at the hotels' restaurants
- Tented lodges are the most common type of accommodation in savannah. Many of them work on solar energy. This sometimes means bucket showers, limited wi-fi and no hair dryers, all in an effort to reduce environmental impact. We encourage you to do some basic research on the accommodations in your program to ensure the safari matches your travel style
