After absorbing all the excitement that Serengeti’s wildlife can provide, we change scenery to visit stunning Ngorongoro crater, another incredible but totally different venue for the breathtaking animals of Tanzania.

3 Days 2 Nights Mount Meru Trekking

How do I decide between a 3-day or 4-day hike? We always recommend going the longer route if your schedule allows and you have not yet acclimatized to higher altitudes elsewhere (meaning you have not summited above 4,000 meters / 13,123 feet without suffering from altitude sickness). Staying longer on Mount Meru helps your body adjust faster to the elevation, making the overall experience easier on both yourself and your physical health. Day 00: Arrival in Tanzania You arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) where one of our representatives meets you and transfers you to the hotel. This accommodation offers everything needed for comfort during your trip, including warm guestrooms, internet connectivity, heated showers, a refreshing outdoor pool, and attentive service personnel. An introductory meeting with our travel organizers takes place here in the evening so we can make sure you're fully prepared for embarking on the incredible journey ahead—the ascent of Mount Meru! Day 1: Journey from Momella Gate to Miriakamba Campsite In the early hours of the next morning, someone from us picks you up directly from your lodging and transports you to the entrance gate located within Arusha National Park known as Momella Gate. While waiting there, local guides prepare by organizing gear bags filled with supplies necessary for trekking over several days. You along with your personal climbing leader must also check in officially with TANAPA - Tanzania Association of National Parks before setting off. On this initial leg of the trek, much like being part of a guided game drive safaris adventure, keep an eye out for roaming wild animals – giraffe herds, zebra stripes, antelopes grazing peacefully under clear blue skies, massive buffalos wading across riversides, plus maybe even some elephant families enjoying their natural habitat nearby trails. Because these areas often host diverse animal life, safety measures require each group participating in treks organized via official channels employ licensed rangers who carry firearms when accompanying groups throughout designated routes inside national parks. Our team does no exception to this rule ensuring everyone remains safe whilst exploring nature closely.
