Itinerary
- 1Materuni is the home of the Chagga tribe and is still an authentic tribal village. This charming place is just 15km away from Moshi Town and 85 km from Arusha (2 hours drive) and is the last village before the Kilimanjaro National Park. Upon arrival, you will register at the village office and your trip can begin. First you will visit the waterfalls, which are around a 40 minute walk away. On the way, your guide will inform you about the culture of the Chagga, village life and explain the surrounding fauna and flora. The views are truly breathtaking, and with some luck you will see the summit of Kilimanjaro. When you reach the waterfalls, you will see that they are more than 80 meters high. The pool at the bottom of the waterfall is an inviting place for a refreshing swim so don‘t forget your swimwear! After having enjoyed the scenery, you slowly return with your guide to Materuni village, where you will experience a traditional Chagga lunch. You also will have the opportunity to taste our local banana beer definitely not to be missed! But that’s not all. Next the coffee experience awaits you. Here you will learn how coffee is cultivated, dried, roasted and further processed. You will also be invited to help with the grinding of the coffee, which is traditionally accompanied by Chagga songs and dances – a fun way to immerse yourself in the local culture, you can savour the coffee you made and appreciate the views of the surrounding rainforest. Furthermore. You’ll head to Chemka Hotspring where you’ll dip your toes to a hot water of spring and offered a pedicure with natural fish in a hot spring eating the dead skin of your leg swelling. Actually this is a very interesting activity. At the evening you’ll say goodbye and return to Arusha and we’ll accommodate you for free.

- desertrunner010 contributionsExcellent safari experience organised by Bernard.We had a great trip organised by Bernard, he picked us up from Arusha airport with minivan and we were transferred to a Safari Landcruiser. The lodge close to Lake Manyari was clean, the beds were good. Food on safari was good with breakfast in the morning, warm lunch and warm dinner with various dishes (chicken every day!), water/beer/wine/coke included. The camping in the Serengeti and on the crater rim was an amazing experience. We had 3 drivers over 7 days and they were all knowledgable and safe drivers. Please be advised that the quality of your tour depends a lot on the driver and cook, we were very happy with ours (Ezechiel, Augustine and Richard), and our Cook Motsi. Please be prepared for some last minute changes and be flexible, our schedule changed a few times last minute, but we did see everything we booked. Also please take into account that is common to tip driver and cook. Last day in Arusha NP Bernard came along with us during the walking tour. Thank you Bernard for an amazing trip.Written 20 October 2024
- toniregk0 contributionsAn amazing time in Tarangire and Ngorongoro, and great encounters!We had a really good time during this safari. Fidelis was really a nice tout guide, and we had the opportunity to see amazing things. Bernard was as well really helpful and arranged the transport from Moshi to Arusha. Adrey the driver was really friendly and we had a good time with him, and learnt a lot on Tanzania and the massai with him.Written 28 September 2024

- 730remir0 contributions1-day safari at Ngorongoro craterThanks for organizing a 1-day safari at Ngorongoro Crater. We had the chance to see a lot of animals from the Jeep and to visit a Massaï village, very satisfied by this excursion ! Animals and landscapes were amazingWritten 2 July 2024
- nmistri0 contributionsLoved the tour and the services.We had an excellent time with Bernard. The tour was prompt and on time. Ngorongoro does not seize to amaze. The sheer quantity of animals in a relatively small space does not seize to amaze. Tangeririe was unique in it's own way and loved the Baobab trees and think we may have found the tree of life. We're from South Africa so were fascinated to finally see the Marula fruit. As a first time in Tanzania, felt safe and comfortable with all the various arrangements and had complete confidence in all the transportation arrangements including from the airport.. .Bernard was open and transparent with all his communications and really appreciated that. Would not hesitate to recommend this tour.Written 28 June 2024
- 178cecilyb0 contributionsGreat safariBernard was so helpful from start to finish. He picked us up from our hotel in Moshi and dropped us at the airport at the end of our trip. He also offered to show us round the city one morning. The safari was a fantastic experience, spotting 4/5 big five and plenty more! Thanks so muchWritten 27 June 2024
- Mobile339810502600 contributionsGreat experience !I went on a two-day safari (Tarangire and Lake Manyara). I booked the day before for the following day and everything went really well. The driver (adorable) picks you up at the hotel and from there you just let yourself go. The parks are great (I saw elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, monkeys, etc) and the guides are friendly. The food was good. Lots of great encounters too! The only problem is the price, but that's the same everywhere.Written 29 November 2023
- KirstenY_130 contributionsA Couple Camping Safari Tanzania in AprilI booked this trip before CoVID but had to cancel due to the pandemic as we were unable to travel. Serengeti Safari kindly refunded the cost and a few years later my partner and I managed to rebook and go on safari. They were very easy to communicate with over WhatsApp. We booked the safari through them as well as; a day trip to Maasai village with local guide Noel who was very friendly and explained the lifestyle. After our safari we also took a day trip to Kilimanjaro waterfall, explored Materuni coffee and Chemka hotspring. The water fall is impressive and we loved the hotspring - more pleasant temp spring which even have fish that might nibble the dead skin on your feet if you let them (#BaliinTanzania). For Safari we went early April and despite being the beginning of the rainy season, we had perfect weather. Not too hot and only a shower or two coming across the plains. It was incidentally the perfect time to visit the Southern part of the Serengeti due to the migration patterns, we saw herds of wildebeests and zebra. Our driver Omary was very knowledgeable about the animals and answered our many questions. The chef cooked some great seasonal meals with both vegetarian and meat options. There was beer, soft drink and white wine as well. As expected the tent was a basic 2 man tent for 2 of the 3 nights (motel for 1 of the nights). Make sure to bring a towel and pillow or use your clothes and a torch- wish we knew this in advance. Some of the showers are cold but reasonably clean. The last night at lion campsite we were joined by buffalo which grazed next to our tent which was a experience. On safari we saw some amazing sights, seeing the big 5 in 1 day (counting the rhino we spotted in the distance with binoculars-provided). Highly recommend visiting and if you want an affordable trip and don't mind camping for 2 nights this is a great company to book through (they do have other sleeping arrangements and were very accommodating to our day trips and extending our accommodation.Written 15 September 2023

- craigcE8828ZE0 contributionsGreat First Time SafariI was able to customize my Safari excursion with these days. The communication was 5 star, every step along the way. They picked me up from the airport right on time, had fair pricing, and the safari itself was a great experience. Our safari driver made sure to stop at each sight to allow us enough time to take it photos before moving onto the next. Will certainly use them again in the future if I'm ever back in Arusha.Written 7 July 2023
- jacquescU9469RU0 contributionsGreat safari adventureI had the adventure of a lifetime with Serengeti Safari Booking. It was a great experience overall. The guide went out of his way to give our group the best animal sighting opportunities. Staff members at the lodges were very friendly and helpful as well.Written 7 July 2023
- Vonderron0 contributionsGreat safari, bad communication practicesThe safari itself was excellent, the guide was lovely and the accommodation for all three nights was good. However, they didn't pick me up from the airport which was meant to be included, and told me to take a taxi after I got there. We also didn't leave for Ngorongoro until quite late in the morning because they folded our tour in with some people coming from Arusha on the morning of. The worst part though was how hard they pushed for me to leave a review, including calling me several times over the next week including during work hours.Written 24 February 2023
