    Safaris and cultural experiences were great memories that we will cherish forever.

    My girlfriend and I recently completed our seven-day Tanzania safari with HERBIVORE. The entire trip was wonderfully organized by Herbivore African Expeditions, and our guide's passion for wildlife and conservation made each journey even more interesting. The accommodations were comfortable, the transportation was reliable, and our guide made every day enjoyable with his fascinating stories and extensive knowledge of wildlife. We returned home with wonderful memories and a deeper appreciation for Tanzania. It was an unforgettable adventure, one that we would happily recommend to anyone. We left Tanzania grateful for these experiences.

    Our 7 day experience we will always remember.

    This 7-day Tanzania safari was very peaceful and perfectly organized by HERBIVORE AFRICAN EXPEDITIONS. Specially thanks Simon he was well planned and making our journey easy safe and comfortable. Tarangire National Park was a great start, with large herds of elephants roaming freely and countless species of birds to be seen. The Serengeti was simply breathtaking. We spent hours watching wildlife in their natural habitat, including lions resting under acacia trees and cheetahs prowling across the plains. Each safari drive brought new surprises. Lake Eyasi offered a completely different perspective on Tanzania. Visiting local tribes and learning about their daily lives was both educational and inspiring. It gave our children a valuable opportunity to experience a culture very different from their own. The accommodations were comfortable, the food was excellent, and the overall organization was seamless. The professionalism of our guide and the smooth logistics made the trip stress-free. We returned home with incredible photos, wonderful memories, and a stronger connection as a family.

    Tanzania so Close You Could Touch Them

    Simon and his team were amazing. They provided us with “reach out and touch them” close encounters with Tanzania’s wildlife in a professional, safe, and respectful way. They also provided an academic level education in the bush. They had field guides for more details and binoculars for viewing. The trucks were capable, clean and new.

    It was our safari adventure and cultural experience.

    Our 7-day Tanzania adventure was an incredible journey with my whole family. Over seven days, we explored some of the most wonderful landscapes while also connecting with local cultures. Our guide Clinton Cliff was knowledgeable, patient, and great with the children. Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro was beautiful views and thrilling wildlife actions we saw. Visiting Lake Eyasi and meeting local tribes added a completely different dimension to the experience. We really observed their lifestyle and really appreciate. Herbivore African Expeditions everything was organized smoothly, and we felt safe and we were very satisfied with them.

    Hakuna Matata, trip with herbivore african expeditions

    We were picked up from the airport as promised and provided with camping equipment, food, and drinks. It was our 1st time visiting Africa, exploring with our professional guide Gasper he made every moment enjoyable and we were excited to explore the Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Eyasi. First we started Tarengire where we could find herds of elephants, then next Serengeti National Park we witnessed a lot of wild animals and we really enjoyed the thrilling actions. The safari part of the trip was incredible when we entered the legendary Ngorongoro Crater. We saw a wide range of wildlife, including the Big Five. Finally Lake Eyasi gave us a deeper cultural insight that made the trip feel complete. The 7 day journey was an unforgettable experience.

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early.

    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?
