Rivertrees Country Inn, Tanzania

Sarah Fox, xXxCountryxXx

The Rivertrees Country Inn was by far my favourite lodge on my tour around the lodges in Arusha. The gardens are serene and the rooms are all decorated in a country style. I particularly loved seeing fresh roses in the rooms. The River House is simply gorgeous. Perfect for two couples or a family travelling together, or honeymooners who want to spoil themselves. Used generally for a night or two at the start or end of a climb or safari. It is top of my list and I always get great reports from clients.
