What are the main things to do in Arusha, Tanzania?

The Arusha Region lies on the border with Kenya, being part of the Savannah and also part of the Great Rift Valley. It's a remarkable safari destination and a center for Maasai culture. It’s also close to Serengeti National Park, which is home to precious wildlife such as lions, rhinoceros, giraffes and leopards. Every year, migrations feature huge herds of wildebeests crossing this incredible region. Lake Duluti, Tarangire National Park and Lake Manyara National Park are also among the highlights of this area.

Nature and wildlife preserves include the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, which contains the Ngorongoro Crater, and Arusha National Park, which covers Mount Meru.
