Guided canoeing on the Momella Lakes in Arusha National Park is one of the few chances in northern Tanzania to explore from the water instead of a vehicle, with a good chance of hippos, flamingos and many waterbirds up close.
The trips are guided and suitable for beginners, gliding gently across shallow lakes beneath Mount Meru. It makes a relaxing half-day addition to a day in Arusha National Park, either at the start of a northern safari or before your flight home from Kilimanjaro Airport.
