    Incredible day combining local culture and serene nature!

    We had an absolutely amazing time on both of these excursions. The Mto wa Mbu cycling tour was an energetic, immersive ride through lush banana and coffee plantations—getting to taste the local red bananas and see the artisans at work was a massive highlight. Following it up with the Burunge walking safari was the perfect contrast. Walking along the lake shores with our guide felt incredibly peaceful, tracking footprints and spotting zebras up close without the noise of an engine. Both activities gave us a much deeper connection to the landscape and the people. Highly recommend doing both!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to share this wonderful review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed both the Mto wa Mbu cycling tour and the Lake Burunge walking safari. We love offering experiences that go beyond the traditional game drive, and your description of riding through the banana plantations and peacefully tracking wildlife on foot is exactly the magic we want our guests to feel. It’s fantastic that you got to taste the local red bananas and connect so deeply with the landscape. I will be sure to share your compliments with your guides. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back for more adventures!

    Heartwarming

    Way better than what I have seen in school, TV, or in the media. Truly an experience of a lifetime. Ngorongoro was heartwarming.

    Amazing !!

    The experience was amazing, we got to see so many animals. It was the best experience of my life. In addition, the team is extremely friendly and professional. the advice and lessons of Isaac (the guide) allowed us to grow out of this experience. the team was incredibly kind.

    Amazing Ngorongoro day trip!

    We had a great day trip from Arusha, our guide Mohamed was excellent - very knowledgeable and a great driver in tough conditions. He was super friendly. The crater is unique and beautiful - this trip was a highlight of our time in Tanzania. The Moorland office is very hard to find, the locations on their website and google maps are totally wrong. Even with directions it took several attempts as it’s well hidden ;) but the owner was very nice. The packed lunch wasn’t too great, the veggie option had many (fried) things so could be simpler but nicer. Overall we recommend them!

    Day Tour Cultural Cycling and Raw Foot walking Safari Expedition: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.

    How much does Day Tour Cultural Cycling and Raw Foot walking Safari Expedition cost?

    +

    Prices start at $280 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 Day Tour Cultural Cycling and Raw Foot walking Safari Expedition take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 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 Day Tour Cultural Cycling and Raw Foot walking Safari Expedition worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 5 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 Day Tour Cultural Cycling and Raw Foot walking Safari Expedition?

    +

    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 Day Tour Cultural Cycling and Raw Foot walking Safari Expedition suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Day Tour Cultural Cycling and Raw Foot walking Safari Expedition?

    +

    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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Day Tour Cultural Cycling and Raw Foot walking Safari Expedition 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.
