Tailor-made safari

5-Day Mount Meru & Tarangire Safari

A thoughtfully designed Tanzania journey, shaped around the way you want to travel.

The journey

Experience Overview

A short combination that keeps the complete four-day Meru climb and adds Tarangire as a single wildlife day. The safari comes after the mountain, when guests can relax in the vehicle rather than trying to trek immediately after a long game-drive day.

Route: Mount Meru -> Mount Meru / Arusha -> Tarangire

Travel Style: Trek and wildlife combo

Best For: Adventure travellers wanting a mountain plus one classic park

Day by day

Follow the rhythm of your safari.

Each day is designed with a gentle balance of movement, discovery and time to simply be in the wild.

Day 01

Momella Gate to Miriakamba Hut

Momella Gate to Miriakamba Hut
Day 01Tanzania

Destination: Mount Meru Complete Arusha National Park formalities and begin the professionally guided Mount Meru trek from the Momella side. The lower route passes through forest and wildlife habitat, so the climb is conducted with the required park support and ranger procedures. The day is paced conservatively and ends at Miriakamba Hut, allowing the body to settle into the mountain environment.

Night accommodation: Miriakamba Hut

Day 02

Miriakamba Hut to Saddle Hut

Miriakamba Hut to Saddle Hut
Day 02Tanzania

Destination: Mount Meru Continue upward from Miriakamba toward Saddle Hut as the vegetation changes from forest to heath and more open volcanic scenery. The professional guide sets the pace and monitors the group. Depending on conditions and the official plan, an optional acclimatisation outing in the Saddle area may be included, but no technical or self-guided ascent is expected.

Night accommodation: Saddle Hut

Tonight’s staySaddle Hut
Day 03

Guided Mount Meru Summit Sector and Descent

Guided Mount Meru Summit Sector and Descent
Day 03Tanzania

Destination: Mount Meru Undertake the guided summit sector only if weather, park guidance and the climber's condition are suitable. The upper mountain is demanding, and the lead guide or ranger has final authority over turnaround decisions. After the summit attempt, descend to a lower sleeping altitude for recovery. The package deliberately describes the day at a high level rather than treating the mountain as a self-guided challenge.

Night accommodation: Miriakamba Hut

Day 04

Miriakamba Hut to Momella Gate

Miriakamba Hut to Momella Gate
Day 04Tanzania

Destination: Mount Meru / Arusha Descend through the lower mountain environment to Momella Gate, complete park formalities and meet the transfer vehicle. Return to Arusha for rest or continue to the next safari component. The descent day is kept simple because legs can be tired after the summit sector.

Night accommodation: Rivertrees Country Inn or Forest Hill Hotel

Day 05

Arusha to Tarangire National Park

Arusha to Tarangire National Park
Day 05Tanzania

Destination: Tarangire Leave Arusha after breakfast and drive to Tarangire National Park. After entry formalities, begin a game drive among baobab woodland, open savannah and the Tarangire River system. The park is especially well known for elephants, while giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, antelope and predators are also possible. The day allows time for a picnic or lodge lunch before continuing wildlife viewing toward the overnight property.

Night accommodation: No overnight - return to Arusha after safari if required
