Arusha is known as the home-base for those seeking a safari experience in the Serengeti National Park, as well the gateway to Africa’s largest peak, Mt. Kilimanjaro. Furthermore, with over 100 nationalities, it’s a melting pot of Hadzabe, Maasai, Swahili and dozens of other indigenous and ethnic cultures. A highly recommended and unforgettable experience is a visit to a boma aka the local community of the indigenous ethnic group inhabiting northern Tanzania known as the Maasai.
