Bagamoyo – Arusha – Karatu, Tanzania
In the morning, we bid farewell to the island and board the ferry back to Dar es Salaam. Following our arrival back at the port, we reunited with our truck and returned to Bagamoyo, where we spent the night.
The journey north this morning will take us across the northern reaches of Tanzania, and our destination for the evening will be the bustling town of Arusha. Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Kilimanjaro are located in northern Tanzania.
The distance from Karatu to the Ngorongoro Crater is short, but we will spend most of the day en route there. Our first stop will be at the Mto wa Mbu Market, which is located in the village of Mto wa Mbu before we arrive in Karatu. In addition to being well known for their unique red bananas, the town is also located on the main road leading directly to the Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater Conversation Area. As part of our 2-night excursion, our guide will provide a briefing tonight.
