Absolutely legendary experience at Aya Sophia Wildlife Hotel in Arusha. The best place to enjoy our honeymoon and bask in the sun, crystal blue pool, hit sauna and steam rooms, high tech gym, 5 star cuisine and the amazing animals relaxing within the hotel grounds. Highly recommended all year round.
