Spectacular scenery, fantastic views of animals.
This tour accomplished our main goals: to see 3 Spectacular game parks and see as many animals As possible. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable and was a very safe driver. The cook prepared good meals. The camping Accommodations were satisfactory. Well worth considering for an economical trip.

Awesome 4 days Safari with African Travel Tour.
Abraham met us at the Arusha airport, which was very nice. Suggested to take Tarangeti instead of lake Manyara. Glad that we did as we saw elephants, giraffes and more other animals.. but the most important baobabs . We were really lucky to see the emigration of animals.. there were millions of them. Chitas hunting. A lot of beautiful big and small birds. Enjoyed staying in tents.. especially the second day ...some gienas and a lion visited us. So you could hear them walking around and smeling tent by tent. Very exciting. . Emmanuel our driver and guide knows the places very well and has a lot of information about animals. I think we saw the maximum we could see for 4days.The way to Serengeti it's a long one but definitely worth it. I would definitely recommend African Travel Tour . Would like to thank again Abraham for helping us with the tickets to Zanzibar. Good price and service. +255 784 994 151 mobile. Thank you. Safari we took on 18th to 21 of January 2019. I took videos. . Sorry for not sharing photos....
Response from the operator: Thank you so much Luba for giving us chance to serve you and going ahead writing a wonderful review. We are indeed grateful you had an amazing experience with our team. We look forward to meeting and serving you again in the near future.

4-Day Tanzania Camping Safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.
How much does 4-Day Tanzania Camping Safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater cost?
+
Prices start at $1,675 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Arusha usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 4-Day Tanzania Camping Safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater take?
+
Plan for about 96 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Arusha is not rushed.
Is 4-Day Tanzania Camping Safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Arusha, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 4-Day Tanzania Camping Safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 4-Day Tanzania Camping Safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 96-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 4-Day Tanzania Camping Safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Arusha can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Arusha and add a light layer if any part of the 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 4-Day Tanzania Camping Safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Arusha within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Arusha?
+
On Outty we rank every Arusha experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Arusha Guided City Tour &Hotel Pickup (History, Culture &Market, 5 Days Camping Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro crater & Visiting Maasai, Materuni Waterfalls, coffee tour & Kikuletwa Hot Springs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Arusha?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
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?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
