4 Day Lodge Safari Arusha to Pangani

Your journey from Arusha to the Indian Ocean will take you away from the usual safari routes where you will explore beautiful places well worth visiting. You will depart from Arusha and make your way to the foothills of the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro. Here in the mountain village of Marangu, you are given an insight into the culture of the Chagga. From here it’s on to the Usambara Mountains for some hiking and a visit to Lushoto, a former German colonial town. The tour will come to an end in Pangani, on the shores of the Indian Ocean. Here you can spend a few days at the beach or travel to Zanzibar by speedboat (optional).
