It is important to make sure that the tour operator you are choosing is legitimate and registered by the relevant bodies. There are a number of options available to find good and legitimate Tanzanian tour operators like Arusha safaris , wildebeest migration, Ngorongoro crater among others.

If you would like to book your tour directly with Tanzanian tour operators what better way to find one than on the wild wide web. There are a number of them in there but here are few guidelines on how to choose a good one.

  • A regularly updated website is a good site: rates, dates of group departures, a regularly published blog are some of the things you could look out for as positive traits.
  • A well detailed and working contact page is a good sign as well as a permanent address. It would be better if the email address given has the company’s domain name it adds a sense of authenticity. And if the numbers listed when called are picked up and answered professionally adds an extra credit as well as promptly answered mails.
  • A page with names and pictures of the staff team is a good idea.
  • The pictures on the website should be authentic and not the common pictures that are on every other site as well as the content on the site.
  • Recent reviews from clients on the operators website is a good sign as well as mention of names of guides and other operatives backed with some picture if possible.

It is based to compare the price of the tour based on the offer or what is included rather than the cheapest or most expensive.

Better yet you can call the tour operator rather than email them and also ask for some pictures of equipment like vehicles as well as any information that you feel is vital to you and an authentic Tanzania tour operators should be able to avail you almost all these with minimal effort.

Third party reviews on platforms like trip advisor are a good way to of receiving first hand information about Tanzania tour operators from an objective party. Although Inspite of their regulation there is still room for maliciousness and fake reviews. Look out for the quality of the reviews and the company’s response especially to the negative ones.

Social media is a tremendously rising trend wild wide as a place to express oneself and share experience. so how about hoping on to the social media pages of these companies and check out what they do there .

All in all deciding good Tanzania tour operators may not be Child’s play with some of these tips it could help and also following your guts would be a good idea. Also checking with accommodation facilities that you have been given if they know anything about the company can be a good idea although some lodges are tour operator owned too.

Deciding on the best Tanzania tour operators for your safari or trekking trip is not an easy decision. Follow our tips above and in the end – let your guts and your heart decide. Then you can look forward to a memorable trip of a lifetime!

Top Arusha Attractions & Experiences

Top Arusha Experiences

  • Arriving at Kilimanjaro Base Camp and gazing in awe at Africa’s highest mountain -- while anticipating the long climb that lies ahead.  
  • Setting eyes on the  Serengeti  Plains for the first time and imagining what wildlife wonders await.
  • Standing on the rim of  Ngorongoro Crater  and surveying one of the greatest concentrations of wildlife on earth from on high.
  • Relaxing at a lodge in Arusha with views of 15,000-foot-high Mount Meru rising in the background, and, perhaps, of  Mt. Kilimanjaro  on a clear day.  
  • Climbing Mount Meru, among the ten highest mountains in Africa and the focal point of Arusha National Park.  
  • Strolling Sokoine Road, Arusha’s main drag, to sample the sights and sounds of an African city.
  • Gawking at the squawking flamingos at Lake Manyara National Park.
  • Photographing the clock tower, Arusha’s main landmark and the center of the city, and wondering if it really marks the halfway point between Cairo and Cape Town, as advertised.
  • Visiting the colorful Central Market stalls stocked with fruits, vegetables, and clothing near the clock tower in downtown Arusha.
  • Journeying to 17,000-foot Mt. Kenya, Africa’s second highest mountain, where a lower (16,000-foot-plus) peak is a popular ascent.
  • Shopping for souvenirs and fabrics at the Masai Market on School Street, near Sokoine Road.

Arusha Tours & Travel Guide

Arusha Attractions & Landmarks Guide

The once small town of Arusha has grown to a city of 400,000 people on the strength of its strategic location, near many of Tanzania’s (and to some degree, Kenya’s) finest attractions. The entire Arusha region has now grown to 1.5 million people.

Loaded with both legitimate guide companies and itinerant guides (some of questionable merit), Arusha is ground zero for most travelers heading off to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro or Mt. Meru, as well as safari-goers preparing for trips to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park (known for its flamingos). and Kenya’s  Masai Mara  Reserve and Mt. Kenya, among other destinations.

Safari Central

Almost everyone ends up spending a day or night in Arusha either before or after their  safari , or both, so -- while it might not otherwise be a prime destination by itself -- Arusha has seen a multiplying of accommodations (both of hotels in the city as well as luxurious lodges and camps on the outskirts), eating places (try the Indian food) and attractions of its own. The climate tends to be pleasant due to its elevation on the slopes of Mt. Meru.

The center of the city is dominated by the clock tower, which is said to stand in the center of the continent as well, midway between Cairo and Cape Town. While the geography is probably off a bit, it makes a nice photo op, as does the Central Market nearby, where fruits, vegetables and clothing items are for sale.

An amble down Sokoine Road, Arusha’s main street, is well worth the time, especially for a first-time visitor to Africa. On School Street, which leads off of Sokoine, you’ll find the Masai Market, or at least the most interesting Masai Market in town, where you can buy souvenirs, handicrafts, jewelry and local fabrics, such as batiks. Bargaining is expected at all the markets; you should pay about half the original asking price, if that.

Nearby National Park

The nearest safari destination to Arusha, Arusha National Park, is just 45 minutes northeast by car, and protects parts of Mt. Meru, the 15,000-foot peak that rises behind the city. This attractive park of forests and lakes won’t make you forget the Serengeti or Ngorongoro Crater for wildlife, but it does have leopards, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, flamingos, some elephants, and black-and-white colobus monkeys, which are more visible here than just about anywhere else in northern Tanzania.

A day visit to the national park might be of special interest to those who have arrived to climb Mts. Kilimanjaro or Meru and aren’t planning on taking additional wildlife safaris. You can hike around the slopes of Mt. Meru or all the way to the summit. At nearly 15,000 feet, Mt. Meru itself can serve as a three-or-four-day warm-up for a Kilimanjaro (19,000 feet-plus) climb or -- as Africa’s fifth highest peak -- as a climbing destination in itself. The two peaks are just 30 miles apart.

If Arusha is serving as your introduction to  Africa , make sure you consult Stride to make the most of your stay there -- and the African adventures that are sure to follow.

Unlike other places in Tanzania like Tarangire National Park , you need a guide to visit Arusha National Park.

WHERE TO BOOK AN ARUSHA NATIONAL PARK SAFARI?

I personally booked a 3-day private safari with Altezza Travel which included a day in Arusha National Park, a day in Tarangire National Park, and a day in Ngorongoro Crater.

Altezza is a premier tour operator who has extensive expertise when it comes to the service and logistics of safari tours within Tanzania’s national parks. 

They have an impressive safari fleet of Land Cruisers with a convertible pop-up roof that provides a panoramic 360° view. They’re also equipped with amenities such as a fridge for your refreshments, Wi-Fi access, and power sockets.

Each safari is customizable, tailoring the ideal dream tour to align with your specific travel style and comfort preferences.

When it comes to accommodation, you’ll be presented with options that include luxurious stone-built lodges and more authentic tented lodge experiences.

Special Offer: Altezza extends a 5% discount on all Tanzania Safari to my readers when you include the code JONNYMELON during your booking inquiry.

HOW MUCH DOES A SAFARI IN ARUSHA COST?

The cost of a safari in Arusha National Park will vary depending on your itinerary and the tour operator.

For a budget safari, you can expect to pay around $150 per person per day. On the other hand, for a more premium experience, you will find safaris for over $1,000 per person per day.

A mid-range option falls somewhere in between at around $300 to $500 per person per day.

I recommend the 1-day Arusha National Park Safari with Altezza Travel which costs $263 per person for a group of 5 people, or $444 per person for a couple.

safari in arusha, arusha safari, arusha national park

HOW LONG DOES A SAFARI IN ARUSHA TANZANIA TAKE?

Normally, a visit to Arusha National Park is a one-day trip, providing a compact yet diverse introduction to Tanzanian wildlife.

That being said, the most popular safaris are multi-day experiences, often lasting 3 days or more. These safaris typically include multiple national parks.

BEST TIME TO VISIT ARUSHA NATIONAL PARK?

The best time for wildlife viewing in Arusha National Park is during the dry season, from late June to October.

During these months, animals are easier to spot as they gather around water sources. The vegetation is also thinner, which means it’s easier to see the animals and take photos.

The weather during this period is typically better, with average daytime temperatures around 21°C (70°F), dropping to around 9°C (48°F) at night.

MY EXPERIENCE ON THE ARUSHA SAFARI

After our Kilimanjaro trek , we were transferred by the Altezza Travel crew to Ngare Sero Mountain Lodge located just outside of Arusha National Park.

We spent one night here, and at around 7:30 am the morning after, our safari guide arrived at the hotel.

From the lodge, we began our journey to the entrance gate at Arusha National Park, a short 30-minute drive.

Arusha National Park

The first activity was a 1.5-hour walking safari with a guide and armed ranger around a section of the park.

We spotted countless wildlife such as warthogs, buffaloes, baboons, and giraffes to name a few, then we continued to check out the beautiful Tululusia Waterfall.

Arusha National Park 4

After the walking safari, we drove around the stunning Momella Lakes filled with pink flamingos, and then stopped for lunch at a picnic site overlooking Mount Meru.

We continued our Arusha National Park safari with a 2-hour game drive, spotting many more animal species and seeing some of the most beautiful landscapes I’ve seen in Africa.

Here are some common animals you’ll spot;

  • Buffaloes : Countless herds of African buffalo, often found grazing in the savannah, are common in Arusha National Park.
  • Giraffes : Giraffes roam freely in the national park, and you’ll see their long necks reaching for leaves in the treetops.

WHAT TO PACK FOR YOUR ARUSHA SAFARI TANZANIA?

Here is a quick overview of what to pack for a safari in Arusha National Park;

Clothing: Comfort is key on a safari. Pack lightweight cotton clothes, long-sleeved shirts, and pants to protect against mosquitoes. I suggest packing layered clothing, as mornings and evenings can be cool while days are warm.

Footwear: Comfortable shoes like trainers are recommended.

Essentials: Don’t forget your sunscreen and hat for protection against the sun. Also, carry a day bag for your everyday essentials.

Camera Gear: A camera with extra memory cards, batteries, a power bank, and a charger will help you capture the best memories from your trip.

IS THERE WI-FI ON THE SAFARI?

If you have a local SIM card, the mobile network is relatively consistent in Arusha National Park, Tanzania.

This means that you will be able to use your mobile data for browsing the internet, posting on social media, and staying connected as a whole.

The safari vehicles are also conveniently fitted with a Wi-Fi dongle.

Some lodges inside the park offer free Wi-Fi and most hotels in cities and towns also have Wi-Fi available for guest use.

Yet, keep in mind that you’re in a remote location and the connection might not always be strong.

7 Days Tanzania Classic Safari Tour

  • Christmas & New Year

7 Days Tanzania Classic Safari

I can only highly recommend Steppe Dogs Adventures. From the very beginning they were very professional and efficient. We were in touch via mail and any question I would ask was answered immediately. They also took care of all my suggestions and in the end we had a safari exactly like he hoped to have. My mom and I went on Safari for seven days. We had a very good car which we only shared with our lovely driver/guide/friend Godbless Marick. He was a perfect driver so we felt safe all of the time even though die to the weather it was sometimes quite hard to drive. He also knew everything about animals (especially birds) and nature as well as historical facts about the places. The lodges/ "tents" Steppe Dogs Adventures chose for us where almost more than we had expected. We felt very comfortable and could enjoy these great experiences even better. The food and drinks were also excellent there. In total it was worth every dollar and we can only highly recommend to go with them. Enjoy :)

We had an amazing safari tour and guide with One Seed Expeditions! Our guide worked so hard to get us the best views of the beautiful animals! He knew how to get ahead of the crowds so we had time to enjoy the natural beauty. I highly recommend One Seed for safari!

6 Days Tanzania Wildlife Encounters Tour

6 Days Tanzania Wildlife Encounters

When you are in Australia and you want to plan a photo safari in Africa, you want a local person to talk to. You want this person to be knowledgeable, attentive to your wishes and needs, and reactive. Frank is all that. And when you are over there, you want the people taking care of you to be professional, ready to satisfy your specific demands (I'm an amateur photographer) and friendly. My driver/guide Donath was all that. So I'm completely satisfy with this agency and I strongly recommend it.

Tanzania Safari Experience National Geographic Journeys Tour

The guide Zuri, and driver Hamdani were the BEST! They were fun, knowledgeable, professional, helpful, handled all our needs and requests efficiently, and were so enthusiastic about making the trip a great experience for the group. Zuri especially, is a gem - a superb professional and a great asset for the G Adventures company. They should find and hire others like her.

5 Days Tanzania Budget Safari Tour

5 Days Tanzania Budget Safari

Amazing Safari experience I joined the 5 day safari tour and it was amazing from start to finish. Booking with Serengeti African Tours was very smooth and easy. Lucas, the owner, was very quick to respond to all my queries. Overall, everything went as planned. I booked a mixed accommodation - 2 nights in lodge & 2 nights camping. To my surprise, i was upgraded to stay at the lodge and it was excellent. It just opened and according to them, I was their second guest. I was literally the only guest during my 2 night stay and everyone was so accommodating and helpful. As for the safari tour, I was lucky to be part of an amazing group headed by our excellent driver/guide, Abu. Abu was very knowledgeable and friendly. He was able to provide good details about the safari, what to expect and he was able to answer all questions. We were also able to see the Big 5. I highly recommend Serengeti African Tours. They’re truly the best in Tanzania. They go above and beyond what is expected. I’m definitely booking another tour with them next time I visit.

Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire (with Materuni waterfalls, coffee tour) - 6 Days

Highly professional all around We travelled as a couple with Serengeti African Tours and received excellent service from start to end. We did a 7 day safari plus Zanzibar as an add on. With an extremely professional and skilled guide, a highly organised booking team and an amazing selection of lodges/tented camps to stay in we had an all around amazing trip. The quality of the food, the staff and the accommodation was 5 star all around. Would highly recommend anyone to do a private safari with this company, you will be looked after from start to end. The small extras including asking what kind of drinks we would like in the vehicle and the gift of a wine for a special celebration was also a really lovely touch. Great value for money with the amount of food, the private tour and types of accommodation. Luxury and mid range available

Just spent a marvelous 10 days in Tanzania with Spider tours and safaris. Our guide was incredible! He was so knowledgeable about the animals, plants, birds, and history. He was patient with us and let us take as many pictures as we wanted and never was in a hurry to keep going. he found so many animals for us we saw the Big 5 within days, a kill, lots of babies, it was just beautiful. I have visited Africa 4 times now and Africa does not disappoint and neither did our friend and guide Thank you so much Spider tours and safaris until the next time!

After a Kili climb we went on Safari. The arrangements at the lodges and the experience of our guide, Peter, made the trip memorable and unforgettable. We recommend using Oneseed for Safari and letting them take care of all of the plans from a hot air balloon ride to birthday celebration. It was a wonderful experience all the way around. We so treasure the trip and seeing the animals in their natural environment.

What our travellers say.

We had an amazing 7 day safari with Arusha Trips, organised by Lex. Everything was arranged smoothly. We didn’t have to worry about anything but what to eat for dinner. Perfect!

Our first morning we got up really early and drove to Tarangire. Our guide Kepha was very enthousiast and shared all kinds of stories about trees, birds and wildlife. In Serengeti we encountered the great migration and followed them around for our time in the park. We even saw a group of hyena’s chase after a wildebeest, and we were right in the middle of it! This was one of the highlights of our safari.

After Serengeti we visited Ngorongoro. Such an amazing experience to stand in a crater that large! I highly recommend visiting there as well.

Thanks for organising our holiday!

We made a last-minute trip with Arusha Trips and they have really exceeded our expectations! After a long phone call they created the trip we wanted, called lodges to check for availability and suggested similar options where it was full.

All we can say is: What a great team! Compliments for how they handled things so quickly.

We’ve done organized organised tours before, but this one certainly was the most memorable! Tanzania is such an incredible country! The nature, the people, the diverse landscapes & SO MUCH MORE!

We just got back from our safari! Before our holiday, Lex kept us up to date with what was happening in Tanzania and sent us a lot of useful information to prepare us for the big day.

Once arrived at the airport, our guide was waiting for us in uniform, with a sign with our name on it. He took us to our lodge where we received a warm welcome. Here the manager, Clinton, was waiting to inform us of our trip.

The safari was the absolute highlight of our trip and the other activities such as a visit to the hot springs were simply unforgettable! Our guide, Kepha is just amazing, truly a golden guy. He was very professional and seemed to know exactly where certain animals would be before anyone else did. He has knowledge of every aspect of Tanzania down to the smallest details!

We truly had a fantastic safari! Tanzania has breathtaking national parks and an abundance of wildlife. We had a knowledgable guide, superb accommodations and some amazing close-encounters with all of the members of the big five!

Camping in the Serengeti and hearing the sounds of hyena’s closeby at night was surely one of the highlights of our holiday! The Hadzabe tribe is also worth visiting. It’s really interesting to see how these people live and survive like our ancestors did.

Kepha thanks again for the great week!

We had a fantastic holiday. I had never seen such nature before! The safari was very exciting and we saw many, many animals. 

We ended our safari in Zanzibar, which was the perfect place to relax after a our intense safari program. On Zanzibar we mostly slept and drank cocktails on the most beautiful beaches, but we did some snorkling and a few boat trips as well. We can also highly recommend going on a D’How boat sunset tour. O and don’t forget to eat some of the great seafood there!

Asante Sana my Rafiki’s!
