Amazing place with deep history. I loved the photos and stuffed animals in the third building. Very beautiful art at the back of the museum. Incredible ambience with vegetation, flowers and the tranquility of the flowing river

It has the stories and facts about animals, reptiles, amphibians, arachnids, insects and more; on their conservative and endangered situation from human cause. Tastes of cultural cafe and art work center plus a botanical garden. Its a place not to miss while in Arusha.

Not a lot of information… better watch a YouTube video. also, they keep an eagle in a cage that is way too small for the animal. Plus in the end for the bad service they still aks for a tip… unbelievable!

A quiet and somewhat dusty museum. I seemed to be the only visitor this afternoon. They have a collection of very nice photographs of lots of flora and fauna but there are very few signs to tell you where to start and end. A brush up of the history of man would make it more interesting, they do have the material. The botanical garden was a dusty and leaf littered area in need of some love and care. An empty terrarium makes you wonder where the inhabitant went, it only left some dried old skins behind.

The place where by all animals are made by special fiber in natural animal leather, I cant touch lion but at least I was able to touch his leather!! The amazing place to study the human history from 7 million years before.

An unassuming place that carries a surprising weight of history - the write ups about German occupation are informative, and the botanical garden was nice to walk through.

Sadly, the museum isnt taken care of properly. Such a shame! And I just think it should have dedicated to Arushas Germans colonial history and its growth over the years. Really disappointing.

A little information about evolution, there is a small garden where local plants grow, turtles, which were picked up from the streets and saved them, an eagle and another carrion bird, I don’t remember the name. There is also a photo gallery of birds and animals living in Tanzania. Then the guy took us to the Tanzanite museum, where they showed us a movie about the extraction of these stones and a museum, like a museum), a store with more paintings, where artists sit and paint, and then these paintings are sold on the masai market. Here, most likely, if you take it directly from the artist, you can take it at a good price. We did not ask prices. There is also a room with real stuffed animals and animals - it was very unfortunate to look at them ((but in Tanzania there are also safari with weapons. They buy a license and kill these animals (

Facilities above Tanzania average. Good to take a look around. The botanical garden next to it is better than the museum.(If you buy art on the art street, bargain 50% or more unconditionally. Normally, it is $15~20, but you can bargain about $5~10)
