Private bespoke safari. Amazing experience!
We spent 6 amazing days in August going through Ngorongoro and Serengeti till Mara river. Ally (Lunge) made our experience unforgettable. He's an excellent guide, super-knowledgable about savana and its animals. It was great to hear all those things about territory, animals and Tanzanian culture from him. He was able to effectively manage a few "technical" glitches too ;-) We were able to see the big migration as well! Lodges and camps and more in general all the organization were perfect. Grazie 1000!
Response from the operator: Hello 👋 Jambo Thank you for great safari feedback we are real apricate it we wouldlike to welcome you for the future safari gain Thank you Jackson

A professional team for an unforgettable stay
An incredible experience with a team of attentive guides, fine connoisseurs of fauna and flora, very attentive to parents and children (8 and 11 years old)! David and his team were able to build a 7-day route between Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarengire and Natron that perfectly met our expectations. On-site assistance was constant, and flexibility was provided so that we could enjoy it at our own pace. We have wonderful memories, and we can only encourage this new company to grow. Thanks again to David the boss, David the new French speaker guide, and Proches the cultured guide and excellent driver!
Response from the operator: Bonjour Merci beaucoup pour vos commentaires sur le safari. Nous sommes très heureux de les recevoir et nous aimerions vous accueillir à nouveau pour de nouvelles aventures safari. Nous vous remercions. Bien à vous David

Dancing Simba safari in Tanzania
Dancing Simba (David) organised an amazing eight-day Safari adventure to the Tarangire, Serengeti and Lake Manyara National Parks and the Ngorongora Crater. David was attentive and promptly responded to any questions we had prior to our arrival and during our safari. He even managed to add a visit to the Materuni waterfalls when we had to extend our visit by a day because of flight problems. Saidy was our wonderful, kind and professional guide and driver who ensured we saw the Big 5, plus, much to our delight cheetahs and hyenas. Saidy patiently waited while we took lots of photos, often moving the jeep to allow us to get to a better viewpoint. We loved the tree climbing lions and the amazing sight of the thousands of wildebeests and zebras gathering for their annual migration. David arranged for us to stay in lodges and luxury tented camps. Our favourites were Suenos De Africa Luxury Camp and the Ngorongoro Marera Mountain View lodge, and we were particularly impressed with the Matawi Serengeti Camp. Overall, thanks to Dancing Simba our Safari in Tanzania was incredible and we highly recommend this company.
Response from the operator: Hello Terry Thank you very much for amazing safari feedback we are happy you enjoyed your 8 days amazing Tanzania safari we would like to welcome you once again for the future safari Thank you Kindly regards David

Amazing experience
From beginning of discussions was excellent with all aswers from.our questions the driver who picked us up was excellent and very enthusiastic and friendly, before we headed off for the safari he let us know what to expect and was very informative when he took us to Mount Kilimanjaro Michael guide for the Kilimanjaro day hike was amazing, very genuine person and down to earth person. David was excellent I cannot put in words how amazing he made everything. He is a very knowledgeable guide and only wanted the best experience for us. He did his best to ensure that we saw all the big 5 and made sure that we left Tanzania country and did not miss out on anything that we wanted to see, on the last few safari days we had yet to see the African Black Rhino but David did everything in his power to make sure we found one and we did! If you want the best experience ask for David ! He was more than just a guide but a friend during the safari trip. We hope to cross paths with him again in the future. Our trip was excellent with 4days safari we want to add days but because of time was difficult. Thanks for service dancing simba safaris is top
Response from the operator: hello thank you for the great safari feedback we would like to welcome you once again for the future safari kindly regards David

8 Day private wildebeest migration safari Serengeti Ngorongoro: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.
How much does 8 Day private wildebeest migration safari Serengeti Ngorongoro cost?
+
Prices start at $3200 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 8 Day private wildebeest migration safari Serengeti Ngorongoro take?
+
Plan for about 192 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 8 Day private wildebeest migration safari Serengeti Ngorongoro worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 8 Day private wildebeest migration safari Serengeti Ngorongoro?
+
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 8 Day private wildebeest migration safari Serengeti Ngorongoro suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 192-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 8 Day private wildebeest migration safari Serengeti Ngorongoro?
+
Around 2 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 192-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 8 Day private wildebeest migration safari Serengeti Ngorongoro 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 Materuni Waterfalls, coffee tour & Kikuletwa Hot Springs, 4 Days Group Camping Safari, 3 Days Serengeti & Ngorongoro Group Camping Safari. 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.
