    Full of excitement, relaxation, and discovery.

    Three days of Tanzanian wildlife safari with Kibo Mawenzi was an incredible experience, and my wife and I returned home as completely different beings. There’s no other way to put it. We’d read about Tanzania for years, but we were completely unprepared to actually be there; boots dusty, binoculars fogged with excitement. Our guide, Elia, had an uncanny ability to pick up on movements that we might not have noticed. Those three days completely changed the course of our lives. We returned as different beings, grateful.

    Amazing safari Experience

    Our Serengeti safari with Kibo Mawenzi was truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The breathtaking landscapes, endless plains, and incredible wildlife exceeded every expectation. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five, along with countless zebras, giraffes, elephants, cheetahs, and stunning birdlife in their natural habitat. We were group of 28 people Our guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about wildlife, making every game drive both exciting and educational. Their ability to spot animals were amazing. Food was freshly cooked by miriam was very healthy and tasty. Evening entertainment was icing on the cake. I would highly recommend Kibo Mawenzi For a great safari .

    Dream come true 🥰🥰 ASANTE

    My partner and I had 3 special and luxurious days in Tanzania. And this luxury camping safari Kibo Mawenzi Safaris exceeded our every expectation and they making our journey easy and enjoyable. Our 1st destination was Serengeti National Park it was an amazing place and thrilling wildlife actions, we enjoyed every game drive with our very professional guide Elia. The highlight was undoubtedly the Ngorongoro Crater, where we saw an incredible variety of animals in just one game drive. Our luxury camp was quiet, beautifully maintained and surprisingly comfortable, making it a great way to unwind each evening after a day of exploring. This safari created memories that will stay with us for a lifetime.

    How many days do you need in Arusha?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
