7 days of magic and adventure
Our journey through Tanzania with Tanzania Wildlife Adventures amazing. We had an incredible time traversing through the 4 parks that we visited: Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro with an amazing guide Calist. Calist went out of his way to show us the best of Tanzania's wildlife and landscapes which made the journey captivating from start to finish. We stayed in delightful places that had amazing staff, great food and five-star service in the middle of the bush, like the iconic Serengeti Safari Lodge and Serengeti Wildebeest Camp. I have to mention Patrick who helped us design and plan this trip for being patient, flexible and paying close attention all our wishes, because we had everything that we wanted and much more.

Lovely Safari Experience
Recently we had one of the best trips of our lives in Tanzania with Tanzania Wildlife Adventures. When we contacted them, we did not know what to expect, but they have been so amazing, and actually exceeded all our expectations. The vehicle was strong and suitable for safaris because of the high clearance and lots of horsepower. We went to Tarangore the home of elephants, Manyara we found lions in trees, Serengeti where the magic of migration happens and Ngorongoro Crater is the wildlife paradise of the world. All this was possible because our guide Baraka was in his best form. He drove well, knew where to find the animals and his company was just enchanting. We would then retire to lovely lodges and tented camps where we felt in tune with nature. I highly recommend going on safari with Tanzania Wildlife Adventures

First Class Safari Adventure All The Way
What a beautiful and memorable experience that we had exploring the parks with guide Marck of Tanzania Wildlife Adventures. We saw the great wildebeest migration, lots of lions, elephants, zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, hippos, cheetahs, hyenas, vultures and lots of other animals. The land is well preserved with forests, grasslands, lakes, marshes and rivers and makes excellent outdoors exploration. Marck knew the area very well and had an uncanny way of knowing where to find great scenes. His could make out animals from great distances and when we came to the site we would find that he was correct. He is well spoken, speaks very good English and a bit of François. The luxury lodges were excellent. We were spoilt by staff as we enjoyed the beautiful surroundings of the places. Ngorongoro Wild Camp, Serengeti Safari Lodge and and Ikoma Wild Camp were the places that we stayed in, with the first two being our favourite places. We had an amazing adventure characterized by first class service all through.

The Great African Safari
We are so fortunate to have gone on this safari with Tanzania Wildlife Adventures. We had James for our guide and he was absolutely wonderful. He knew that circuit like the back of his hand and is passionate about his job. He was really happy to have us with him as we moved between the different parks. Tarangire NP is definitely the elephant country though there are pockets of other animals like giraffes, elands, warthogs and a number of meat eaters. Serengeti was the highlight of the trip. We came across the great wildebeest migration moving south towards Ndutu. We also went on hot air balloon safari in Seronera which is unforgettable. The trip down Ngorongoro Crater floor was also very satisfying. There are so many animals within the crater walls, including the rhinos that I saw for the first time. The overnight stays in the luxury camps and lodges was a great idea. This was lots of fun and made the overall trip unforgettable.

Fantastic Time in Tanzania
We just completed our safari with Tanzania Wildlife Adventure and it was it was perfect. The private trip was well organized with a comfortable 4x4 vehicle driven by Juma. He took exceptional care of us as we went exploring through the different parks enjoying the wildlife and beautiful sceneries. Juma was really nice, knowledgeable and patient with us. Also very respectful to the animals in the parks and the people we also met along the trip. He acted as our go between with the Maasai herdsmen family that we visited in Ngorongoro. We were booked mainly in luxury tented camps and they are absolutely fantastic. Secluded but with all the frills and excellence that made us not want to leave. Thank you all!

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Big Five Luxury 7 Days Safari Tour in Arusha: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.
How much does Big Five Luxury 7 Days Safari Tour in Arusha cost?
+
Prices start at $2992 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 Big Five Luxury 7 Days Safari Tour in Arusha take?
+
Plan for about 168 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 Big Five Luxury 7 Days Safari Tour in Arusha worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 22 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 Big Five Luxury 7 Days Safari Tour in Arusha?
+
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 Big Five Luxury 7 Days Safari Tour in Arusha suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 168-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Big Five Luxury 7 Days Safari Tour in Arusha?
+
Around 8 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 168-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Big Five Luxury 7 Days Safari Tour in Arusha 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.
