The bustling town lies in the shadow of Mount Meru on the eastern edge of the eastern branch of the Great Rift Valley. Arusha is called the safari capital of the country, and hosts many international visitors embarking on the popular northern safari circuit. With its pleasant year round climate and close proximity to Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, Olduvai Gorge, Tarangire National Park, and Mount Kilimanjaro, Arusha is considered a great place to visit and volunteer.

I had a fantastic experience using Global Adventure Safaris, from first contact (almost a year before departure) to now when I am beginning to plan for another trip next year (it was that good!)
I was organising a geological field trip to the area around Engare Sero and climbing Oldoinyo Lengai, for 18 people (university students and staff from University of Glasgow. Our trip had precise aims and objectives that had to be met and our requests were demanding at times but Edward was fantastic in helping in develop the plans and deliver a fantastic trip while we were in Tanzania. Being a student run trip we had very limited funds yet for much cheaper than other operators were offering Edward provided all that we needed and more.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Everyone of us really enjoyed the trip and we have Edward to thank for that. We will be booking with Global Adventure Safaris in the future and certainly would recommend the company to others.
