About
This seven-night mobile horse safari takes you deep into the wilds of northern Tanzania. Ride through the foothills of Mount Meru, across the open plains of the Masai Steppe, and beneath the gaze of Mount Kilimanjaro. Along the way, encounter herds of buffalo, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, and — if lucky — elephants, cheetahs, and sometimes, though rarely, even lions.
Each day brings a new adventure: galloping across dried lakebeds, tracking wildlife through acacia woodlands, visiting traditional Masai bomas, and camping under vast African skies. Evenings are spent in private mobile camps with sundowners, fireside dinners, and the sounds of the bush all around you. This is a journey for those who seek freedom and adventure, a connection with nature, and the rhythm of the land — all from the back of a horse.
Arusha National Park is a hidden gem in northern Tanzania, nestled in the shadow of majestic Mount Meru. Unlike the vast savannahs of the Serengeti, this park offers a more intimate, enchanting wilderness — a mosaic of misty forests, sparkling lakes, rolling hills, and ancient craters. Here, giraffes move gracefully through highland clearings, colobus monkeys swing from fig trees, and flamingos gather like blushing petals along the shores of the Momella Lakes. It’s a place where the air is cool and fresh, where the clouds of Mount Meru roll in and out like a breathing sky, and where every turn of the trail whispers a story of wild beauty and quiet magic.
The Wildlife Management Area offers a stunning mix of open savannah, acacia woodlands, dry lakebeds, and seasonal floodplains — ideal for both wildlife viewing and exciting riding. You’ll ride through vast, open plains perfect for long gallops, shaded woodlands home to giraffes and antelope, and rugged areas of volcanic rock. The land is crossed by wildlife migration routes, including those of elephants. All this unfolds beneath the dramatic backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro, Mount Meru, and Mount Longido — a truly iconic African landscape.
