Drawing inspiration from their Greek heritage, this family-owned restaurant has brought the vibrant flavors of Greece to the Tanzanian food scene. And if you're in the mood for something local, don't miss out on an Arusha classic: banana and beef stew—an absolute must-try!

In Arusha and craving Indian cuisine? We know just the place. Amber offers the best Indian and world-fusion dishes in town. Indulge in all the curries you can imagine and enjoy some delish drinks in their cosy garden.

If you're looking for amazing sunset views in Arusha, go to the rooftop of the Gran Melia. They have amazing Peruvian-Spanish tapas, boozy cocktails and the best views of Mount Meru. And, if you're lucky (and it's a clear day), you can catch a glimpse of Mount Kilimajaro!

The Cultural Heritage Centre in Arusha is more than just a museum—it's a vibrant space where history, art and culture meet.  It houses an extensive collection of African art and a shop that sells everything from Maasai jewellery to Tanzanian tinga-tinga paintings. And if you're feeling particularly indulgent, they also have an extensive Tanzanite collection. This stunning blue gemstone is 1,000 times rarer than diamonds and can only be found in Northern Tanzania, so it's truly a special find.
