    Best world class service 👍

    We were so pleased with Gifton and his team. They provided an excellent service for our group of friends in Ngorogoro and Serengeti. During the safari, we were supposed to have an outdoor lunch and it rained heavily out of nowhere. Instead of cancelling the outdoor lunches, they arranged an awesome luncheon time in the high class indoor tent with amazing view and service. They definitely went above and beyond the service of a safari tour. I highly recommend anyone hiring them. I would definitely hire them again when I return to Tanzania.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review and for choosing Take Me to Tanzania Adventures & Safari. We’re glad you and your friends had a great experience in Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park. The team will be happy to hear your feedback. Turning unexpected moment "like the rain" into something special is what we always aim for. We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back to Tanzania again soon. Karibu tena 🇹🇿

    Adventure was had! 10/10 experience

    We had a great experience from start to finish. They were a great help in making sure everything was figured out before hand or if we had any issues. The guides were all friendly and helpful. Once they picked us up we didn’t have to worry about anything. We saw many animals and they helped organize the balloon ride which was also a 10/10 experience. We went in March which was rainy season so adventure was had! The roads were a bit muddy but everything worked out and it made it even more memorable.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your amazing review and for choosing Take Me to Tanzania Adventures & Safari. We’re so glad you had a smooth, stress-free adventure and enjoyed the wildlife and balloon safari in Serengeti National Park. March rains can add a bit of adventure, and we’re happy it made your trip even more memorable. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back again. Karibu tena 🇹🇿

    My go to tour guide service in Tanzania!

    I highly recommend Takemetotanzania, Gifton and his team of drivers and tour guides. Our group of 8 enjoyed an amazing Serengiti and Ngorongor adventure. Gifton and his team communicated with excellence leading up to the trip as well as during the trip. I'll likely be brining future groups to Tanzania for so Christian mission work on university campuses with US executives and professionals and Take Me to Tanzania will be my go to service provider for all my tour needs. One tip I would share...unless you are okay with a lot of drive time on bumpy washboard roads in the Serengiti I'd suggest flying from Arusha 1 or both ways and having the team meet you out there. Keep up the great work T.M.T.T.! Warm regards, Pete H.

    Best safari company!

    I highly recommend Gifton and his team at Take Me to Tanzania! Our group did a custom safari tour, with very comfortable lodgings at a very competitive price. We saw so many animals, despite it being the wet season.

    5 Days Northern Circuit Adventure: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.

    How much does 5 Days Northern Circuit Adventure cost?

    +

    Prices start at $3,400 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 Northern Circuit Adventure 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 Northern Circuit Adventure worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 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 Days Northern Circuit Adventure?

    +

    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 Northern Circuit Adventure 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 Days Northern Circuit Adventure?

    +

    Around 3 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 Days Northern Circuit Adventure 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.

    What is included in 5 Days Northern Circuit Adventure?

    +

    Included: Lunch; All Fees and Taxes; Dinner; and Breakfast. Not included: Personal items (e.g. cameras, visa, and travel insurance). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does 5 Days Northern Circuit Adventure include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 1 listed pickup location in and around Arusha. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is 5 Days Northern Circuit Adventure offered in?

    +

    It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
