"Such a wonderful boutique safari lodge just outside of Arusha! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, the food was delicious, and the room was exceptionally comfortable. I would highly recommend Amani Safari Lodge to anyone looking for a tranquil and welcoming environment to begin their safari adventures in this incredible country!"

Don't let the ride there dictate what you're going to think of the hotel because trust me the right there is really brutal but it is so so so so so worth it extremely beautiful the hotel itself is exceptional staff are very good I greatly enjoyed it I would show you some of the pictures but apparently there's no way to do that but I'm telling you it's worth it

Rivertrees was a lovely start to our exploration of Tanzania. It is located in Arusha less than a ten minute drive from the town and the National Park gate. Our first ever game drive was organized by the hotel and was very productive and exciting. They also organized transport for us from the airport and to our next property. While the latter was expensive, the location was very challenging and that was not the fault of Rivertrees or their contracted drivers.
This property is beautiful including...

We had been promised a driver to take us from the airport to the lodge, and he was there waiting in spite of the l-o-n-g entry process and the late hour. And, he is a very good driver, even where the roads were iffy. We were offered a late light supper, which was perfect. In the morning, the manager greeted us with "Come see the mountain. It's the first time in a month!" He led us to a huge deck jutting out over a gorge, and there in front of us was a crystal clear Kilimanjaro. Wow! ...

Excellent stay. The lodge is beautiful, the activities are great, the food is delicious, and the service is outstanding. Everything was perfect. Would love to go back and stay longer.

Patumu Hotel is well-located near the entrance to Ngorongoro Crater National Park. The hotel is simple with clean rooms and comfortable beds, but a bit dimly lit. The hotel staff was very welcoming and helpful in directing me to local services. There was ample parking and a restaurant.

Everything is wonderful. Rustic artistic decor and grounds, friendly and helpful staff. Clean and beautiful views. Great food. Filtered water. A wonderful perch high above one of the great cities in Tanzania. Views of city and Mt Kilimanjaro (on clear day). Good WiFi. No complaints.
