Just What I Hoped
I had a great time and saw absolutely everything I could have hoped to see. My guide Raymond was brilliant, always doing his best to facilitate your needs; from reversing a few inches to answering any questions you had. My chef, Allen, was also brilliant. We stayed at the same campsites often so he always had to step up and make sure I had everything I needed. Again he did so brilliantly as well as being a very good chef.

Coolest Experience!!!
I had the BEST time on this Safari Tour. We saw so many animals as soon as we entered the Serengeti and our guide, Bayona, made sure to get us as close as possible. He drove us through scenic routes and showed us all the animals we could hope to see in the Serengeti over the course of 6 days. He made sure to check in with us from time to time if we needed anything, and was overall very accommodating and friendly. This was a relaxing and exhilarating trip all in one. Highly recommend this for families, friends and couples!

Unforgettable Tanzanian Safari
Booked a tailored safari adventure with Serengeti African Tours and I could not be happier!! It was an amazing experience start to finish. From the beginning, Serengeti African Tours worked with me to make sure my group and I got everything we asked for, from the accommodations to the custom meals. Bayona was our safari guide and he was fantastic! 10/10. He was friendly, funny, and very knowledgeable about the parks and the animals. He made sure we got to see everything we wanted up close, was incredibly at spotting things out in the distance, and really made this trip as great as it was. If you are considering a Tanzanian safari with Serengeti African Tours, I would highly recommend asking for Bayona to be your guide!!

Absolutely unforgettable safari experience!!!!
Absolutely LOVED our experience with Serengeti African Tours, Linah and our amazing driver, Elisha! TLDR: Everyone was so kind, food delicious and accommodations BETTER than expected even though we did the budget camping safari, we saw the big 5 and more, connected with our driver on a personal level and were in tears leaving! 😭😭 Info on camping safari below Booking a safari can be overwhelming- there are so many companies and we wanted to be responsible tourists and book a safari company that was Tanzanian owned. Linah was one of the first to respond, sending me various options and finally settling on a custom blend of the various options they had- 5 days of “budget” safari camping including accommodations and all 3 meals every day, and 1 day of the materuni waterfall & coffee tour for what we felt was a more than fair price of $1200 per person. Later we added the hot air balloon, but unfortunately we didn’t fly due to safety and weather and I received a full refund (no fault of Serengeti) We were picked up promptly every day, everything was so easy, fun and set up for us to enjoy ourselves and get what we wanted out of our experience. Even though we spent hours in the safari car - it flew by because we were laughing and enjoying the company of those in our group (6 people) who were our age and similar backgrounds, plus we thoroughly enjoyed our driver, Elisha’s sense of humor, kindness and personable personality as well as the facts he taught us about the animals and the country! If you’re curious about the camping experience, there are toilets, sinks and showers at every campsite! We also were able to watch wildlife at both campsites but especially at the one on the crater rim, we saw giraffes, zebras, and gazelle IN the camp! Absolutely amazing experience and definitely worth the challenge of camping- which really wasn’t a challenge at all since everything is done for you. I even lost my coat at one of the stops but I wasnt Cold at the crater rim camp at all. All meals were hot and delicious such as chicken, rice, vegetables, pasta, beef curry etc for lunch and dinner, pancakes, eggs and sausage for breakfast. There are lots of stops for the restroom and coffees! ☕️ The car is very comfortable, safe and easy to spend hours in and also to view the animals through the roof of the car! We saw multiples of every single animal we came to see, including the rare ones like leopards, cheetahs and rhinos! We even saw babies of almost all the animals we wanted to see! Elisha pulled all the stops to make those sightings happen, driving across miles of land to find just one animal if necessary! When we left, we were genuinely so sad and in tears to leave him and our “safari family”. I will be recommending this company, Linah and Elisha to anyone who wants to do a safari in Tanzania! I have 0 regrets and only wish it was longer 🫶🏻

Thank you for organising one of the most beautiful journeys of my life!
* Overall experience: Excellent. I had a wonderful safari and my overall impression of the company is very positive. Everything was well organized from beginning to end. * Organization: On the first day, an agent personally briefed me about everything — what to do, what to wear, payments, timing, and what to expect. Communication was clear and professional. * Guide: Our guide, Lucas, was great — friendly, professional, and almost always perfectly on time. A couple of small delays were completely understandable due to circumstances beyond his control. * Vehicles: This is the main area that needs improvement. Our car broke down twice, and the first breakdown cost us a couple of hours. I would strongly recommend investing in newer and better-maintained vehicles. * Driving: I completely understand that roads in national parks are rough and mostly off-road — that is part of a real safari. However, driving around 60 km/h on very bumpy roads sometimes felt too fast. Slower driving would make the experience safer and more comfortable. * A lucky accident: Because of the first breakdown, we entered the park later than planned, but it actually gave us an amazing experience — we saw an active leopard walking around in the evening, rather than sleeping. So something good came out of the delay! * Food: The food was fine, but it was almost exactly the same every day. For a multi-day safari, more variety in the menu would be very welcome. * The group: I was also incredibly lucky with my group. We came together completely by accident but quickly became really good friends, and sharing the safari with such wonderful people made the whole experience even more memorable. Overall, I would definitely recommend this company. It was a beautiful, well-organized and memorable experience. With newer vehicles, slightly slower driving on difficult roads, and more variety in the food, it could be even better for future travelers.

6 Days Serengeti Safari(hiking waterfalls &coffee tour): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.
How much does 6 Days Serengeti Safari(hiking waterfalls &coffee tour) cost?
+
Prices start at $500 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 6 Days Serengeti Safari(hiking waterfalls &coffee tour) take?
+
Plan for about 144 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 6 Days Serengeti Safari(hiking waterfalls &coffee tour) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 60 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 6 Days Serengeti Safari(hiking waterfalls &coffee tour)?
+
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 6 Days Serengeti Safari(hiking waterfalls &coffee tour) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 144-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 6 Days Serengeti Safari(hiking waterfalls &coffee tour)?
+
Around 21 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 144-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 6 Days Serengeti Safari(hiking waterfalls &coffee tour) 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.
