Chemka Hot Springs Day Trip
Swim in the warm, crystal-clear water of the Chemka (Kikuletwa) hot springs, an oasis of fig trees in the dry plains between Arusha and Moshi.
From US$50per personWhich day trip should I choose?
For wildlife in a single day, the Ngorongoro Crater is the strongest choice, with lions, buffalo and a chance of black rhino on the crater floor. Tarangire is closer and famous for elephants in the dry season. Arusha National Park lets you walk with a ranger and canoe on the Momella lakes. For a rest day before a climb, the Materuni waterfalls and coffee tour or the Chemka hot springs are relaxed and good value.
What is included?
Pick-up and drop-off at your Arusha hotel, a private vehicle and guide, park or entrance fees, lunch and drinking water.
