A dream of a honeymoon!! An unforgettable safari with the whole family!!!
We celebrated our honeymoon with a beautiful safari in the Serengeti National Park, together with my husband, our children and the whole family, and what an experience this was! Everything was perfectly arranged from A to Z. From the first contact with Isaya everything felt so familiar. Everything was arranged from the Netherlands. Clear, friendly and with a lot of patience. And when we arrived in Tanzania, he stood there with a warm smile to welcome us personally. That sense of care and genuine commitment, you don't see that often. We stayed in super nice, clean lodges!! The stay surrounded by nature was stunningly beautiful. You will be surrounded by the sounds of the wilderness, truly a unique experience that you will not get anywhere else. Everything safely arranged and truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The food was really delicious too! Super tasty and hygienic! Our tour guide Eli was fantastic. He almost felt like family. Warm, cozy, very professional and incredibly knowledgeable. He took his time with us, explained everything and knew exactly where to go to spot animals. We have seen the Big Five and so much more, moments we keep reliving in our minds. The jeep was very comfortable and clean, ideal for long game drives, enough charging points for your phones to charge! The whole family has enjoyed intensely. It was such an amazing experience that no one will ever forget this. This was also our second time booking with this organization, the first time was in October 2022. Because that trip was so beautiful, we wanted to do our honeymoon with them again, this time together with our family. That was definitely the best choice ever. If you are looking for a safari organization that is reliable, professional, warm and truly committed, then look no further. We recommend them from our hearts. Thank you so much for creating memories that we will cherish forever. ❤️🦁🐘🦓🦒

Wild life experience of a lifetime
After my sister getting married we were invited with 11 people of our family to see the Serengeti national park and it was an experience we will never forget. By far it was the most beautifull vacation ever. Everything was really good taken care of. This company is very professional and always hear your needs & preferences. We saw in our first a lot or beautifull animals such as lions, cheeta’s capture their prey, lioness with 7 cups, 18 lioness in one place and leopards. Actually all the animals in the Serengeti except one not, maybe a reason to come back. As my sister and brother in law are here for the second time already with the same travel agents. The unique experience which i was fond of was at night time when me and my wife were in our nice cosy and romantic tents we could here sound of animals, since we were in the middle of the savanna. That was an experience you won’t get anywhere in the world. The travel agents are very kind and serve at the best.
Response from the operator: Dear Phi V, Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience with us! 🌿 We are truly delighted to hear that your family safari after your sister’s wedding became such a memorable and special adventure. It’s fantastic to know that you enjoyed the beauty of the Serengeti, from the incredible wildlife sightings to the peaceful and romantic sounds of nature at night. We’re very happy that you felt well taken care of and appreciated our team’s efforts to make everything smooth and comfortable. Knowing that your sister and brother-in-law returned for a second time means a lot to us — it’s the best compliment we could receive! We hope to welcome you and your family again soon for another unforgettable safari experience — and perhaps to spot that one animal you missed this time! 🦓🐘 Warm regards, @gowithmesafaris Isaya

The most beautiful safari!!
I can recommend this tour, because everything was taking care of during our stay. We saw so many animals. Also we had so many spectaculair moments. We saw for example 20 lions at the same time eah was amazing! 3 cheeta's hunting together. A female lion with cups and so much more. Also we had such fun time together and we made so many great memories with the family and all the pictures and video's are so beautiful. We couldn't be more blessed.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
5-days Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro Safari: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.
How much does 5-days Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro Safari cost?
+
Prices start at $2,460 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 Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro Safari 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 Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro Safari worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 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 Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro Safari?
+
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 Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro Safari 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 Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro Safari?
+
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 Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro Safari 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 Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro Safari?

Not included: International flights (from/to home); Personal items (souvenirs, travel insurance, visa fees, etc.); Tips (tipping guideline US$10.00 pp per day); and Airport Transfers. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 86 listed pickup locations in and around Arusha. Be ready about 45 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

+
