    Satisfied

    Everything was magical with our exceptional guide Steve: he speaks Italian very well, shows culture and friendliness, and has an eagle eye for spotting animals. We saw so many animals, including the famous big 5.

    Emotions that leave a mark

    It was supposed to be an entry level safari. I was expecting torture, and instead I came home speechless. The Taranghire with its wonderful bao babs, lions, giraffes, elephants so close to the car that you can almost touch them. The caldera of Ngorongoro, a crater extinct for 6,000 years that today houses a magnificent lake visited by hyenas, vultures, lions, buffalo, flamingos... a breathtaking landscape surrounded by greenery, wild and fascinating. The Serengheti center with the highest concentrations of felines I had ever seen: leopards, cheetahs, lions even cubs, thousands and thousands of zebras and wildebeest. A gigantic savannah full of pitfalls where there were struggles for survival before my eyes astonished by so much beauty. Finally, there is Ndutu, a lake where grasses exist that can bring back almost the entire circus of wild animals to give birth to their puppies. In short, there are not enough words to describe the beauty of the nature of these places. All I can say is it changed my life. There is a before and a post Tanzania. And if that's still not enough to convince anyone who has this experience, then just meet Rocco, the owner and enlightened guide of Tanzania Safari Crew and listen to him present these places. Everything from the driver to the base camp, to the eating, to the beds was in my opinion sqpientemente thought to provide refreshment after 8 hours of safari. The terraces of the chosen lodges had breathtaking views. Every evening before dinner you sit in front of the hearth to exchange your impressions. The beds always perfect. The sheets that smelled fresh. Swahili cuisine, spicy and rich in meat and vegetables. The choice of wines, South African, all excellent perfect in food pairing. I was not surprised at all to discover that Rocco is an anthropologist, the son of university professors of Greek and Latin. Conversing with him is already worth the cost of the trip. It was an honor to spend some time together. It was a journey that changed my life. For the better! Thanks for 💙

    Wonderful experience for the whole family!

    We had our first experience outside Europe with our 6 and 8 year olds and I have to say it was a very nice and excellent experience. But I start from the things that I did not like, which were the lack of binoculars on the vehicle (despite being told that on every jeep there was one), the fact that due to overbooking I had to accept a different tented camp from the one booked for the two nights at the Serengeti, and the alternative was the Accommodation that I least preferred during the safari (this of course is not the fault of the tour operator). Finally I did not appreciate that I was booked a plane to Zanzibar from Arusha (calling it airport is madness) at 17:30 knowing that after 17:30 from there you can not leave because they do not have lighting (in fact thanks to a delay of the plane "it got late" and we had to go to the other Kilimanjaro airport by bus and leave from there, after 4 hours, arriving in Zanzibar at the hotel at midnight). Although this was really unnerving for me, the Rating is still very positive because all the structures chosen were of an excellent standard, there were no hitches during the 5 days spent with Abdul and we spent some very pleasant days, seeing many animals and landscapes different from each other, crossing Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. Abdul is a very kind Guide and who makes himself available to guests, as well as being truly a deep connoisseur of his land and his countrymen. Rocco, who has lived and worked there for years, is a great host and, in addition to organizing a nice Safari, hosted us on arrival and return to his Italian restaurant where we ate very well. Recommended 👍🏻

    Safari "Serengeti" - 5 days in the most famous Parks in the world: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Safari "Serengeti" - 5 days in the most famous Parks in the world cost?

    +

    Prices start at $2,930 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 Safari "Serengeti" - 5 days in the most famous Parks in the world take?

    +

    Plan for about 120 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 Safari "Serengeti" - 5 days in the most famous Parks in the world worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Arusha, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Safari "Serengeti" - 5 days in the most famous Parks in the world?

    +

    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 Safari "Serengeti" - 5 days in the most famous Parks in the world suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Safari "Serengeti" - 5 days in the most famous Parks in the world?

    +

    Around 3 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 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Safari "Serengeti" - 5 days in the most famous Parks in the world 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.
