I travel a lot—I'm practically a nomad—but this trip was truly one of the best of my life.

Excellent Safari Tour
We had an incredible 8-day safari in Tanzania and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Having one of the owners of the company with us and an excellent driver and guide made the trip feel very personal from start to finish. They were extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and always made sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. We visited amazing places and were lucky enough to see an incredible amount of wildlife, including lions, elephants, leopards, and many other. The organization was excellent, the car was comfortable, and everything ran smoothly throughout the entire trip. What really stood out was the passion and care that went into the experience. It felt much more like traveling with someone who genuinely loves Tanzania and wanted us to discover the best of the country, rather than simply being on a standard tour. I highly recommend this company to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. It was a truly special experience!

Unforgettable 8-day Tanzania Safari with Big Three Tours!
We had an incredible 8-day safari covering Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Natron. The entire experience was flawless from start to finish. The service was outstanding, and the staff were exceptionally welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable. Thanks to our amazing guide, we saw every animal on our wish list and gained wonderful cultural insights during our visits to the local tribes. If you are planning a trip to Tanzania, I cannot recommend Big Three Tours highly enough. Thank you for making this a trip of a lifetime!

Fulfillment of a dream
The tour was great, never thought I would see so many animals (except for rhinos). The organization was impeccable, the food was super, and Joel is an absolutely smart, likable guide. Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Frank! We are thrilled to hear that you had such a great trip and saw so much wildlife. Thank you also for the kind words about our organization, the food, and especially Joel – we will gladly pass your feedback along to him! Next time, we'll definitely keep our fingers crossed for the rhinos 🦏✨. We hope to welcome you back again soon! Warm regards, Big Three Tours and Safaris Team

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Explore National Parks and Wildlife of Tanzania Safari: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.
How much does Explore National Parks and Wildlife of Tanzania Safari cost?
+
Prices start at $6,256 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 Explore National Parks and Wildlife of Tanzania Safari take?
+
Plan for about 96 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 Explore National Parks and Wildlife of Tanzania Safari worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 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 Explore National Parks and Wildlife of Tanzania Safari?
+
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 Explore National Parks and Wildlife of Tanzania Safari suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 96-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Explore National Parks and Wildlife of Tanzania Safari?
+
Around 4 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 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Explore National Parks and Wildlife of Tanzania Safari 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.
