Exploring the wildlife

This morning, you will hopefully wake up to the very talkative Colobus monkeys. Breakfast is served and shortly thereafter we mount and directions are taken towards the area where the film Hatari was filmed, starring John Wayne. Thereafter, halfway into the morning ride, we start the climb (on horseback), some will be done on horse and some on foot, aiming to reach a viewpoint, that if clear has one of the best views of Mt Kilimanjaro. You drive past the “Fig Tree Arch”, a massive fig tree arch, big enough to fit five horses underneath it. The drive continues until we reach lunch, beautifully located next to a waterfall.

After lunch, start heading back towards the horses, we then ride back down to camp and after returning to camp, there will be an option to jump into the vehicles (or relax in camp) and go visit the Momella lakes, hoping to see some hippos and beautiful water birds. Sundowners at the lakes before heading back to camp for showers and dinner.

Feeling the wind whispering

Wake up to Colobus monkeys chatting in the early hours of the morning. Breakfast is served and everyone mounts and starts heading back towards civilization. Enjoy the last morning with your mount in this magical place on earth, full of wildlife, stories and tales.

Late morning, we will get back to the Arusha National Park gate where we dismount and say farewell to our four-legged friends. From here there are a few options, some will continue onto other safaris or stay another night or two at the lodge and practice and play polo for a few days.
