Karibu Heritage House
A small, family-run guesthouse in Arusha for the nights between flights.
The photo shows Arusha, not the property. We add each lodge's own photographs as the lodge sends them, rather than borrow from the internet.
Why we book it
Karibu Heritage House is a small guesthouse in a quiet part of Arusha, a handful of rooms around a garden, dinner cooked at home rather than in a hotel kitchen.
It is the Arusha stop on Tanzania Magic, before and after the Gombe flights, where a big hotel would be wasted on a night that starts late and ends early.
Our mainland safaris quote this lodge or similar: a property of the same standard if it is full or has moved with the season. The exact lodge is named in your proposal, before any payment.
