Top 5 short excursions

1 Lake Duluti Of particular interest to birdwatchers, this beautiful forest-fringed crater lake 10km east of Arusha is circled by a well-maintained walking trail, and can also be explored on organised canoe trips run out of nearby Serena Mountain Village Lodge.

2 Mkuru Camel Safari (www.mkurucamelsafari.com) Based at the village of Mkuru at the northern base of Mount Meru, this highly regarded community tourist site is best known for its organised camelback trips, which range from half-day outings in the surrounding wildlife-rich plains to a week-long trek to Lake Natron.

3 Longido The perfect antidote to the photo centric boma visits offered along the northern safari circuit, the cultural tourism project at Longido provides an opportunity for uncontrived, genuine immersion in the fascinating Maasai culture. Be there on Wednesday, when a hectic cattle market is held on the village outskirts.

4 Ng’iresi (www.arusha-ngiresi.com) Set on the slopes of Mount Meru, this is another worthwhile community tourism programme – it explores the culture of the Wa-Arusha people for whom Arusha is named, as well as some lovely walks in the lush countryside.

5 Cultural Heritage Centre This complex – where former South African and US presidents Thabo Mbeki and Bill Clinton did their curio shopping – stocks a vast collection of local craftwork, ranging from towering carvings to colourful batiks, as well as Tanzanite jewellery and a selection of Tanzania-themed books.

Top 5 sites around Ausha town

1- Mount Meru Craft and Curio Market Also known as the Maasai Market, this central collection of 50-plus stalls is a pleasingly down-to-earth environment in which to buy – and bargain for – Maasai beadwork, Tingatinga paintings, batiks, jewellery and so forth.
2- National Natural History Museum The limited displays here include various fossils unearthed at Oldupai, as well as life-size models of Australopithecus hunter-gatherers, but the main point of interest is arguably the 1890s German boma in which it is housed.
3 -The Tanzanite Experience, This fascinating and free multi-media museum offers 45-minute tours about the discovery and extraction of tanzanite, an exquisite blue gem mined only in Tanzania. A boutique store sells certified gemstones.
4- Warm Heart Art Gallery This aptly named art gallery, complete with a sunny garden cafe, is also home to the Rock Art Conservation Centre, an NGO dedicated to the preservation of the rock art of Kondoa (a UNESCO World Heritage Site).
5-Arusha Declaration Museum Though rather pricey, this museum on Uhuru Monument Circle is a must for students of 20th-century African history, thanks to its illuminating displays on the colonial and post-independence Nyerere era.
