We will meet you at Kilimanjaro Airport or Arusha Airport and drive you to your hotel in Arusha. This is where you’ll get settled and ready for what’s to come.
In the evening we will have an in-depth trek briefing at your hotel where you will be introduced to your guide and team. This is a great time to review the itinerary, ask questions, and make sure you’re prepared. We’ll also go over your gear together and assist you in renting anything you may need.

Day by day
Day 1: Arusha (1400 m) – Miriakamba Hut (2500 m)
First day of your 4 Days Mount Meru Trekking after early morning breakfast in Arusha (1400 m), you will be picked up from your hotel and brought to the Momella Gate in Arusha National Park. At this time, the porters will organize and pack the belongings for the hike while you and your guide register with the Tanzania National Park (TANAPA). You will then begin your ascent in Arusha National Park. The first day of hiking is similar to a walking safari; you should expect to see giraffes, zebras, antelope, buffalo, and potentially elephants near the trail. Due to the high possibility of spotting wildlife, an armed ranger, hired through the National Park, is required to hike with our team for the duration of the hike. As you continue hiking, you will pass the Ngarenanyuki River and a beautiful waterfall at the base of Mt. Meru. Upon arriving at Miriakamba Hut (2500 m), your chef will prepare a hot dinner and washing water for you. Enjoy the beautiful sunset and overnight
