Coffee Lodge

Arusha, Tanzania

A 'home-base' between safaris in Tanzania

Arusha Coffee Lodge is situated within colourful gardens and on the picturesque Burka Coffee Estate – a working coffee plantation spanning 17 acres located on the edge of Arusha.

Arusha is the ’safari capital’ of Tanzania and the main entry and exit point for all safari goers travelling into reserves such as Tarangire, Lake Manyara, the Ngorongoro Highlands and the Serengeti.  It is also the main hub for all charter flights coming in and out of these areas, and the more remote parks of Katavi and the Mahales Mountains, and Zanzibar and the coast.

The lodge offers 28 private chalets and suites, all built on raised wooden platforms with multi-level bedrooms, private lounges and balconies overlooking the Mt Meru or the plantation.

Meals are served at Redds African Grillhouse, with a menu that reflects an array of both traditional Tanzanian cuisine and other African specialities.  Attached to the lodge is the new Traders Walk complex, including the Shanga glass boutique and workshops built to empower those with disabilities from the local          community, a Tanzanite jeweller and safari boutique.

Offering a true oasis, Arusha Coffee Lodge is a perfect ‘home-base’ for any overnight stay between safaris.

Thank you for putting together the ancestral adventure of a lifetime. I cannot speak highly enough of the trip. The transfers went smoothly, the accommodation was excellent, the drivers were amazing as they manoeuvred through the traffic and every tour guide had a great deal of knowledge and information. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The contrast of poverty and riches of the country was striking, from the beggars in the street and struggles of the poor to the spectacular, impressive sights of the forts and monuments. There were so many highlights. A moment in time that will never happen again.

Exellent and wonderful, reaching way above expectations.

We wanted the opportunity to see as many wildlife parks as possible and the Classic Safari Company provided an action-packed itinerary that included six, with 11 tiger sightings and nine leopard. This was overlaid with an introduction to Jaisalmer, Jaipur and the 'real' India. Pench and Panna were the hidden gems of a really great trip, very well organised, seamless and enjoyable. As a solo traveller I felt incredibly safe at all times. I want to go back!

Mark Taylor

The trip exceeded my expectations and was the best family holiday I have ever had. Our children simply loved it and now I know more about African wildlife than they do about our own farm animals.
