4-Day Mount Meru Trek

4 Days Mount Meru, Arusha National Park, Tanzania Kilimanjaro Travel 5.0/5 from 1 review

Overview

A 4-day trek up Mount Meru, Tanzania's second-highest peak, often used as acclimatization for Kilimanjaro but also a rewarding, less-crowded climb in its own right.

Mount Meru, at 4,566 meters, sits within Arusha National Park and offers dramatic views into its own collapsed volcanic crater as well as distant views of Kilimanjaro. Because it receives a fraction of Kilimanjaro's climbing traffic, it appeals both to travelers using it as acclimatization before a Kilimanjaro attempt and to those who simply want a rewarding high-altitude trek without the crowds.

Customer Reviews

Traveler
★★★★★

We had an incredible safari experience with this Tanzania tour operator. From the first inquiry to the last day of our trip, everything was organized professionally. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and always made sure we were comfortable throughout the safari.

We visited Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park and were fortunate enough to see the Big Five. The accommodations were excellent, the vehicle was clean and comfortable, and every detail of the itinerary was well planned.

What impressed us most was the operator's attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction. We felt safe, welcomed, and truly experienced the beauty of Tanzania.

I highly recommend this company to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. It was truly a trip of a lifetime and we look forward to returning again in the future.
