    About this experience

From January it is the best time to witness the calving as they spread out across the short-grass plains and predators are just around waiting for their opportunities to make a hunt.

    10/10 experience!

    We had an amazing experience with Lion King Adventures from start to finish! They made planning our safari incredibly easy, from putting together a great itinerary and booking all of our accommodations to taking care of our meals and park fees. Everything was well organized, and the team was always super responsive, helpful, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. The best part of our experience, though, was our guide, Eugen. He was absolutely incredible. His knowledge and experience are truly unmatched, and you can tell he has a genuine passion for what he does. He knew exactly where to go and how to position us to get some of the best views and photos of all the animals we wanted to see. His knowledge of the wildlife, parks, and Tanzania made the entire safari so much more interesting and memorable. Beyond being an amazing guide, Eugen was incredibly friendly and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire trip. Having such an experienced and knowledgeable guide made a huge difference in our safari. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Lion King Adventures, especially Eugen, to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania!

    Our guide exaudy was incredibly professional and knowledgeable. He patiently explained all kinds of wildlife facts to us the entire day, and successfully led us to spot countless animals we hoped to see. Despite his young age, he possesses excellent driving skills and handled rough safari roads perfectly. My kids adored him very much. I will definitely recommend him and your team to other tourists from China in the future. Everything was nearly perfect. The only minor suggestion is that we would appreciate a newer vehicle. The car broke down three times on the way, yet Exaudy fixed every issue perfectly without trouble

    Response from the operator: It’s wonderful to hear how much your family enjoyed their time with Exaudy. His knowledge, patience and ability to find so much wildlife clearly made a big difference to your safari, and we’re especially pleased to hear that your children adored him. We’re sure he’ll be proud to know that his professionalism and driving skills helped make your days in the bush so enjoyable. We’re sorry that you experienced some challenges with the safari vehicle during your journey. All our safari vehicles are serviced and maintained to a high standard, but the conditions in the national parks can be particularly demanding, with rough and challenging roads. Unfortunately, even with the best maintenance, mechanical issues can occasionally happen while on safari. We have a good support network within the national parks, including mechanics and access to spare parts, and our guides are trained to deal with and repair many issues themselves. We’re pleased that Exaudy was able to resolve each problem and keep your safari moving. Your feedback is important to us, and we will continue to ensure that our vehicles receive the level of maintenance and care our guests should expect. Thank you also for recommending Exaudy and the Lion King team to other travellers from China. It means a great deal to us. Warmest wishes, the Lion King Team

    Perfect experiences in the Serengeti & Ngorongoro!

    The guide EZEKIEL is perfectly skilled with full of hospitality. He frequently gets information and has great eyes to find animals. Thanks to Ezekiel, we found the great migration twice in two hours on the first day, big 5 (including black rhino and white rhino) in 4 days in Serengeti and Ngorongoro!

    Response from the operator: Four days in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro certainly gave you some incredible sightings! Experiencing the Great Migration on your first day, followed by the Big Five including rhino, makes for a very special safari. A big part of that experience was clearly Ezekiel. His knowledge, hospitality and sharp eye for wildlife helped you make the most of your time in the parks, and it sounds like he knew exactly where to look when it mattered! We’re very pleased that you enjoyed your time with Lion King Adventures and that Tanzania gave you so many memorable wildlife encounters. We hope to welcome you back for another safari one day. Warmest wishes, The Lion King Team

    Stop consiedering and just go with Lion King!

    We travel a lot, but this safari was something else entirely. Six days across Tanzania – every morning game drive, every sunset, every evening by the camp felt like it was happening in slow motion in the best possible way. We got incredibly lucky with our guide Haruni. He is someone who is genuinely, deeply in love with nature – not as a backdrop, but as something alive that moves him every single day. And that feeling was impossible not to catch. He wasn't just doing his job out there; he was experiencing it alongside us. When something extraordinary appeared on the horizon, his eyes lit up the same way ours did. All of our accommodations were wonderful – authentic, atmospheric, and surprisingly comfortable. The kind of places where the service feels personal rather than polished, and where you genuinely feel like part of the landscape rather than a guest passing through. Each lodge had its own character and added something different to the trip. I came home with more memories than I know what to do with. Elephants at a watering hole at golden hour. The Milky Way overhead with no light pollution for miles. The sound of lions in the distance at night. These aren't just photos – they're feelings. If you're considering a safari in East Africa, stop considering and just go.

    Private 6-Day Great Migration Ndutu Serengeti Safari Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private 6-Day Great Migration Ndutu Serengeti Safari Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $2827 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 Private 6-Day Great Migration Ndutu Serengeti Safari Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 144 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 Private 6-Day Great Migration Ndutu Serengeti Safari Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 89 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Arusha, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private 6-Day Great Migration Ndutu Serengeti Safari Tour?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Private 6-Day Great Migration Ndutu Serengeti Safari Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 144-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private 6-Day Great Migration Ndutu Serengeti Safari Tour?

    +

    Around 31 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 144-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private 6-Day Great Migration Ndutu Serengeti Safari Tour 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, Materuni Waterfalls, coffee tour & Kikuletwa Hot Springs, 5 Days Camping Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro crater & Visiting Maasai. 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.
