You realized our dream !
Amazing! we past one of the best moment of our life. We saw the Big five with a lot of animals and landscapes were more than magic. Our guides Roger and Yusuph are the best guides we met on our trips. They are very kind with a very nice well being, they are very engaged and passioned on their job. Roger shown us the best place inside the national parks and positioned each time his car to take the best pictures, he is just amazing! He took time to explaine us the faune and the flore and the connexion between both. Also a very big thank to Yusupf for translating in french and for his kidness and knowledge. We recomand Roger and Yusuph to others tourisms the eyes closed. Thank you so much Emmanuel for your program, national parks and very beautiful lodges, everything were perfect! More than we thought. Our note is 10/5 😁 Hope you will be work to much Roger and Yusuph, they deserve that! Sandra and David Desroches

Just Amazing !
I would like to know that with my wife we past one of the best moment of our life. We saw the Big five with others animals and landscapes were more than beautiful. Our guides Roger and Youssouf are the best guides we met on our trips and I' m sure they are the best guides of all Safari's guides. They are very kind with a very nice well being, they are very engaged and passioned on their job. Roger shown us the best place inside the parks and positioned each time his car to take the best photos, he is just amazing! He took time to explaine us the faune and the flore and the connexion between both. Also a very big thank to Youssouf for translating in french and for his kidness and knowledge. We recomand Roger and Youssouf for others tourisms the eyes closed. Thank you to much Emmanuel for your program, national parks and very beautiful lodges, all were perfect! More than we thought. Our note is 10/5 😁 Hope you will be work to much Roger and Youssouf, they deserve that ! Sandra and David Desroches

Great experience!
Fantastic experience, we did a 5-day Safari booking a private tour (in two). We visited the national parks of Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, led by our super guide (his name was Praygod). The three parks are very different both in terms of landscape and wildlife, so we were happy to have visited all three. Although the price may seem high at first, a Third party of it is reserved for admission to the national parks (about $600-700 per person, if you decide to go on a private safari). The recommended campsites are fabulous, and being in the middle of the national parks they also allow you to have breakfast with elephants about ten meters away 😊 With TJ everything went well (not even a jeep failure 😉) and at the end of the Safari we were able to admire all the big 5!

Safari at the top with Luis
We had an amazing 5 days of safari with Luis. He has lynx eyes to see all the animals and always has a laugh. He also has the experience to make you experience a unique safari and not stuck in traffic jams with all the other vehicles. The food was excellent, more than enough quantity. Thanks to the cook! Communication with Tanzania Joy Tour was smooth and clear. They are very responsive. Thank you for everything ! We highly recommend!

5 Days Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Safari
We were lucky enough to catch a driver (Praygod) who is a big bird connoisseur himself and could explain all kinds to us. The safari was also a great experience and Praygod delighted us with his great expertise on the ecology and culture of the country. Of the big five, we were able to spot 4, the rhinos are so small scattered in numbers that you have to be really lucky to spot them. Victor the chef spoiled us with delicious food that was more than abundant. Although you spend a lot of time in the car, you have the opportunity to see the country and people. Highly recommended also for families with children. Stefan -Südtirol
Response from the operator: Dear Stefan Thank you so much for your great review! It was nice having you with us. May your plans bring you back to Tanzania. Best wishes! Emmanuel

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
5 Days African Safaris: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Moshi.
How much does 5 Days African Safaris cost?
+
Prices start at $1962 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Moshi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 5 Days African Safaris 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 Moshi is not rushed.
Is 5 Days African Safaris 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 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Moshi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 5 Days African Safaris?
+
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 Days African Safaris suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 2. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 120-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book 5 Days African Safaris?
+
Around 2 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 Moshi 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 Moshi and add a light layer if any part of the 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 5 Days African Safaris 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 Moshi 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 Moshi?
+
On Outty we rank every Moshi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Materuni Waterfall, Coffee Tour and Picnic Hot Lunch, Climbing Kilimanjaro through 7 days Machame Route, Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route. 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 Moshi?
+
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 Moshi?
+
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.
