Arusha Airport – Mto wa Mbu
Arusha Airport – Mto wa Mbu
Upon arrival at Arusha/Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be warmly welcomed by one of our experienced driver guides, who will escort you to your reserved hotel in Karatu Town. If you have time and energy, there will be some stops on the way, and the guide will introduce you to the city and the country.
In the past, the area around Karatu and OlDeani was of great importance to the German colonial administration. The area's cool climate, verdant hills, and pleasing views make it popular with settlers and farmers. Coffee was the main crop grown for export, and a few large farms that remained in private hands still cultivated the cash crop on the hills and small valleys outside of town. Karatu offers splendid views of the northern highlands and is a popular base for visitors on their way to Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park.
