Wonderful day exploring Arusha National Park
I recently enjoyed a wonderful one-day safari to Arusha National Park with Msafiri Tanzania. My guide Aidamo was very knowledgeable about the local wildlife and went above and beyond to ensure that I was able to see as much as possible on a short timeline. The company was also very flexible with scheduling and ensured I made it back to my hotel in time for a briefing for my Kilimanjaro hiking trip that evening. I would highly recommend Msafiri Tanzania.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the kind review and recommendation. We are thrilled that you enjoyed your safari and made it back in time for your briefing :-)

Amazing one day safari !
We had a great day and would highly recommend this trip to anyone! While seeing all of these magnificent creatures was something we all had wanted, none of us wanted to sit in a car for several days on end. This trip was the perfect balance of driving around, while also getting out and exploring on foot. On the walking part of the safari (which took about 2 hours) the highlight was definitly getting really close to a heard of girafs . It was amazing ! And once again our guides were amazing and very knowledgable!
Response from the operator: Thank you for this lovely review, we are so pleased that you and your family enjoyed your safari and that giraffes came to say hi :-)

Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking Safari: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Moshi.
How much does Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking Safari cost?
+
Prices start at $400 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Moshi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking Safari take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Moshi is not rushed.
Is Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking Safari worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Moshi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking 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 Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking Safari suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking Safari?
+
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 Moshi 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 Moshi and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking 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 Moshi 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 Moshi?
+
On Outty we rank every Moshi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Materuni Waterfall, Coffee Tour and Picnic Hot Lunch, Materuni Waterfall and Coffee Plantation Half Day Tour, Kilimanjaro climb, Machame Route (7-day). 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 Moshi?
+
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 Moshi?
+
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.
What is included in Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking Safari?
+

Does Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking Safari include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 40 listed pickup locations in and around Moshi. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Private Day Trip to Arusha National Park with a Walking Safari offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
