Budget Lake Chala day trip (tour) | BURIGI CHATO SAFARIS CO L.T.D

BURIGI CHATO SAFARIS CO L.T.D has been regarded as the best company organizing memorable and luxury trips to Lake Chala which is a crater lake in a caldera at the border between Tanzania and Kenya and 52 km from Moshi town, Lake Chala is said to be the deepest inland water body in Africa with a depth of about 3 km. Well, there are a lot of fairy tales and rumors about the lake. It was measured at a depth of 95 meters, which makes it deeper than famous Lake Victoria. Upon exiting the car, the first thing you notice are the green and quiet surroundings of the lake. It’s so much more peaceful than the quiet cities, but there’s also many things to do. Lake Chala offers great hiking routes and is a great place to swim or take the kayak to paddle around the lake! You can even fish with the locals. In the area of the lake, you might be able to spot animals such as baboons, velvet- and blue monkeys, maybe a cute little dik-dik or kudu. Sometimes even an elephant!

Itinerary

Your friendly guide will arrive at your accommodation armed with your tasty packed lunch. Then he or she will bustle you into the transport and drive you to Lake Chala .
You’ll arrive there and our guide will take you down to the lakeside, through vividly green flora, with the blue, blue lake ahead of you. It gets quite rocky near the lake so wear sturdy footwear. It’s a stunning area perfect for hikers and birdwatchers, and in season you might be lucky enough to spot elephants gathering at a distant waterhole. Spend the day wandering the paths around the lake or across the nearby savannah, where you’re likely to see baboons, vervet monkeys and blue monkeys as well as (perhaps) the shy dik-dik and graceful kudu, too.
After your hike, spend some time sitting by the lakeside enjoying the stillness, only disturbed by birdsong and the gently lapping waters.
If you’re feeling a little more active, you can jump into a kayak and explore the lake further. You’ll be serenaded by the ever-present birdsong and gentle plashing of the water as you row.
After your adventures, you’ll be driven back to your hotel at Moshi in the late afternoon.
