Excellent experience

My overall experience was excellent. The Sales Manager Raymond had been very helpful and professional, providing me all the necessary information promptly. He responded to all my queries even at night or early in the morning. He helped me to plan a safari trip at a very reasonable price. The guide Francis was super experienced and provided us thorough explanations about the wildlife. He is very knowledgeable and is very respectful of the animals and nature. The cook Jeff did an excellent job too and we were always happy with his food. Our safari was more than satisfactory, thanks to everyone involved.

Response from the operator: I want to take a moment to personally thank you for your fantastic response. Your kind words about Serengeti Landmark Tours truly mean a lot to us. We are delighted to hear that you had an exceptional experience on your safari.

UNFORGETTABLE FANTASTIC SAFARI.

Our safari Serengeti landmark tours was an absolutely fantastic, once in a lifetime experience! From the seamless planning with Raymond to the incredible game drive with our knowledge guide Robart everything was pretty. We saw the big five including countless lions and elephants, and enjoyed delicious, fresh hot lunch in the bush.

Safari from Arusha

Raymond goes out of his way to try and make things run smoothly. Had some great experiences in the crater and the Serengeti seeing huge amounts of animals. Organisation turned out to be a little fluid as the people on the small group we were with changed almost daily as people had booked different amount of days on safari. Would work for those on relatively tight budgets

Response from the operator: We are glad to hear from you that this safari with us has left you with lifetime memories your most welcome once again

Who is Small Group Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater Adventure Safari best for?

+

It suits travelers who want a full-day outing and anyone who wants flexible plans best, based on its 96-hour length, minimum age of 1 and free cancellation up to 24 hours before.

Is Small Group Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater Adventure Safari good value?

+

Yes. It starts at $690, below the $1,031 typical for similar experiences in Arusha.

How much does Small Group Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater Adventure Safari cost?

+

Prices start at $690 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 Small Group Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater Adventure 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 Small Group Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater Adventure Safari worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 15 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.

+

Is Small Group Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater Adventure Safari suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 96-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Small Group Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater Adventure Safari?

+

Around 5 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.

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.
