Best in Organizing safari and beach holiday

We really recommend anyone who wants to go on safari or beach holiday to Tanzania to book with Superb Tanzania Safaris We have booked a 3 week safari / beach holiday with our family and have had a lot of contact in advance about what we wanted. Freddie did a really good job. He has mapped out a safari/beach holiday for us and it was beyond our expectations. It is a fantastic, affordable and very reliable company and everything is arranged down to the last detail, from the Guide that was waiting for us when we got off the plane, the domestic flights to all excursions. It's an advantage that Superb Tanzania Safaris arranged all the hotels, lodges tents camps, modern safari cars, they have their own guides and a great staff. All lodges, tents and hotel rooms were spacious, very clean and fully equipped. The staff is extremely friendly and the food is delicious. All the staff really made us feel "at home". During our safari we had a fantastic guide, Alex, who was like a walking Wikipedia. He was by far the best guide we could imagine. He really knew everything about the wildlife and he wasn’t just a guide but became a friend. We had such an incredibly beautiful holiday that we will never forget. Many thanks to Superb Tanzania safaris, and especially Freddie, for this unforgettable experience.

Who is 5 Days: Lake Manyara / Serengeti / Ngorongoro best for?

+

It suits couples and travelers who want a full-day outing best, based on its 120-hour length, minimum age of 2 and free cancellation up to 24 hours before.

Is 5 Days: Lake Manyara / Serengeti / Ngorongoro good value?

+

It is a premium pick. It starts at $2,410, above the $1,031 typical for similar experiences in Arusha.

How much does 5 Days: Lake Manyara / Serengeti / Ngorongoro cost?

+

Prices start at $2,410 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 Days: Lake Manyara / Serengeti / Ngorongoro 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 Days: Lake Manyara / Serengeti / Ngorongoro worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 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.

+

Is 5 Days: Lake Manyara / Serengeti / Ngorongoro 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: Lake Manyara / Serengeti / Ngorongoro?

+

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.

+

+

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.
