5 Day Safari
I had an incredible time on my 5 day safari through Tarangerie, Serengeti and Ngorogoro! From the moment I enquired to book until getting dropped off on the last day, the service from Fondess Vacations was 10/10! Accommodation, food, the tour guide, the vehicle - everything was perfect! We managed to see every animal on my tick list, of course including the big five so I am extremely happy! If you’re thinking of doing a safari with Fondness Vacations I would highly highly recommend, you will not regret it!

Excellent experience
"Our 5-day safari with Kwai was truly one of the best experiences of our lives. We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have had such an experienced, knowledgeable, and delightfully fun driver. Kwai's keen eye allowed us to spot animals that seemed elusive to others in the park. Thanks to this amazing, kind-hearted human, we witnessed far more than just the Big 5. Highly recommended for an unforgettable adventure!"

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
5 Day Camping Tarangire Serengeti Ngorongoro Crater and Maasai: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.
How much does 5 Day Camping Tarangire Serengeti Ngorongoro Crater and Maasai cost?
+
Prices start at $1,090 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 5 Day Camping Tarangire Serengeti Ngorongoro Crater and Maasai take?
+
Plan for about 120 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 5 Day Camping Tarangire Serengeti Ngorongoro Crater and Maasai worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Arusha, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 5 Day Camping Tarangire Serengeti Ngorongoro Crater and Maasai?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 5 Day Camping Tarangire Serengeti Ngorongoro Crater and Maasai suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 5 Day Camping Tarangire Serengeti Ngorongoro Crater and Maasai?
+
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 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 5 Day Camping Tarangire Serengeti Ngorongoro Crater and Maasai 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.
