If you have only a short time to spend in Tanzania and would like a quick safari tour, then this is probably the best option from Arusha town in Northern Tanzania. It is a 4-day Tanzania Safari starting and ending in Arusha town, where we can pick you up and drop you off at any hotel in the city and its suburbs. The park runs along the line of the Tarangire River and is mainly made up of low-lying hills on the Great Rift Valley floor. Its natural vegetation mainly consists of Acacia woodland and giant African Baobab trees, with huge swamp areas in the south. Both the river and the swamps act like a magnet for wild animals during Tanzania’s dry season. The Tarangire National Park is reputed to contain some of the largest elephant herds in Africa. This African national park is also home to three rare species of animals – the Greater Kudu, the Fringed-eared Oryx, as well as a few Ashy Starlings. We eat lunch at a picnic, after which we continue with a game until late evening, and then drive to the lodge for the night.
You will depart your Arusha accommodation after breakfast and be transferred to Tarangire National Park for about two hours. Once we reach our destination, you will go directly on a game drive. Tarangire is most famous for its large herds of elephants and giraffes. After the game drive, you will be transferred to your Pre-Chosen accommodation facility for dinner and overnight.
Your journey to Serengeti, probably the most famous of all national parks in the World, begins after breakfast. You will be served with a picnic lunch just before we reach Serengeti, and upon arrival, we’ll have a short stop at the park gate to take care of the formalities and fees before we make way into the Serengeti. You will enjoy a half-day game drive before transferring to your selected accommodation for dinner and overnight.
Enjoy your breakfast before we start the drive to Ngorongoro Crater, and you can enjoy a game drive en route. Ngorongoro is one of the most popular destinations in Tanzania, and not without a good reason. The 600m deep caldera is full of life, with such diversity you will not find anywhere else in such a small space. Only inside the crater can you, with absolute guarantee, see the lions and certain species of rhino up close. Once the game drive is complete, you will be transferred to your accommodation for dinner and overnight.
After breakfast, you will enjoy a half-day game drive before we return to Arusha. You will be transferred to your accommodation or driven to the airport for the flight home.

Verified Seychelles with Puraha We drove the game with Emmanuel for four nights and five days. Thank you to Pura Hajar with the most wonderful memories of your life. After that, we took care of the Zanzibar trip and had fun traveling. I have a Korean president. Comfortable. 리선생January 18, 2025Verified I want to come again!

Cost $80 and felt this was the only trip not worth the money. We did Victoria falls (both sides), elephant encounter, sunset cruise and Botswana safari - all drivers and tour guides were friendly and helpful lemOctober 6, 2024Verified Amazing Kilimanjaro It was an amazing trip, excellent guides, great food and all aspects of comfort and safety were taken care off. Phil and Mathew are simply amazing. Ravi ASeptember 5, 2024Verified Great safari experince My wife and I used Furaha Tours & Safaris, based in Arusha, as a tour operator for our Tanzanian safari in Aug. 2024, our first trip ever to Tanzania and Africa actually. We had lots of questions and weren’t sure what to expect. Phil, the owner of Furaha, was always available to answer them for us. He was patient, prompt, customer focused and precise in his responses. He was very flexible in customizing our itinerary based on our needs. He ensured that we had the most pleasant experience from the moment we landed in Arusha to the time of our departure. We highly recommend Furaha Tours & Safaris as a tour company for a safari expedition in Tanzania. Our guide during the safari was Rajab. Getting a great tour guide is a vital component of the safari experience as you would be spending the next 5-7 days or more depending on your itinerary with your guide. Rajab is a fantastic guide with a wealth of knowledge in wildlife, a safe driver and has a great eye for spotting wildlife in the bushes of Serengeti or the grasses of the Ngorongoro crater. He is passionate about his job, has an immense sense of pride to be a Tanzanian, and a great off-road driver on the challenging terrain you will encounter. On our trip, we visited Northen Serengeti with the hope to witness the Mara River crossing of the wildebeest during their Great Migration. Watching a river crossing requires luck, great driving skill and an intuition to predict where a migration is likely to occur. Rajab brought the latter two to the table and with an element of luck, gave us a once in a lifetime experience of witnessing 3 crossings in a matter of a couple of hours, not to mention, with the best spot in the house. On our trip back to the airport, we came across a roadblock to the airport due to the passing of the Tanzanian President’s motorcade who was visiting Arusha for a conference. We were not sure if we would make it to the airport in time and were quite nervous. Rajab worked with a couple of other safari drivers and coordinated a plan to do some off-road driving in the city to get us close enough to the airport to be able to make it on time when the motorcade eventually passed. Due to his actions, we not only made it on time to the airport, but instead, we had some time to freshen up for our long journey back home. We very highly recommend Rajab as he is an exceptional individual and tour guide. SunnySeptember 2, 2024Verified Wonderful 6-Days Safari I highly recommend this Safari tour and Furaha company. Our journey was perfect, with the Big Five and the beautiful Tanzania in our sight.Phil is a super warm and caring friend. From the very beginning of the planning stage, he patiently answered every question I had and helped us perfect every detail. After arriving in Tanzania, one of my friends had a problem with his luggage. Phil helped us contact the airport and arranged for the luggage to be shipped to near Serengeti by a small plane during the trip.Our guide Rajab is super energetic and professional. He kept the car very clean and provided us with delicious food and perfect explanations. He is also a patriot who has his own insights and pride in Tanzania's national development.I will definitely come back to Tanzania, this beautiful land, to meet beautiful people and nature again. Zihao ShengJuly 17, 2024Verified Furaha Trips gave us a great experience. It was a very happy few days travelling with Furaha Trips, we had a lot of good memories and the guide was a very, very nice person, very responsible, took care of us, he was very nice to us and we saw all the animals we wanted to see. Thank you most for the delay in my luggage, but the Trips boss and director were always helping me get in touch with my luggage and it ended up being shipped to the grasslands for free, so it was a lucky adventure! Very Recommended Furaha and the director told us that Furaha means Happy and we were really happy. 泽茜 孙July 17, 2024Verified One of the best experiences of my life - 7 days of climbing the Lemosho route at Kilimanjaro Just got down from the mountain, and it has been one of the absolutely best experiences of my life. But also one of the toughest.Before leaving the hotel, the guide checked all of my gear. I needed more warm clothes, which we then rented on the way. Really nice that they help you make sure you have all the gear you need.The equipment Furaha brought was good quality. Almost new tent, warm sleeping back, soft mattress and pillow and so on. Allways put up and ready when arriving to a next basecamp.Also always a hot cup of tea, and warm water to wash-up after a long day hike. The food was really great, and especially when thinking of it made on one stove. Fresh vegetables and fruit, pasta, local dishes etc. And always asking if any specific request.During the 7 days I felt 100% safe, and during the hikes I really enjoyed the company of the guide. Telling me about the nature and wildlife of Kili, how to breath the right way for better performance (really needed for last hike to the top during night), local culture and so.The hole team worked together to give me the best possible 7 days. And they really succeeded.I can only recommend traveling with Furaha. Right from choosing the route at Kili 6 month before leaving to sitting at the hotel (that they have booked) 7 days later. Ken MJune 25, 2024Verified Serengeti Ngorongoro Lake Manyara Alais, thank you for your good work. I was worried because my English was not good, but the guide helped me so well that I was able to safely complete the Serengeti Ngorongoro Lake Manyara National Park tour. thank youFuraha tour / simba tour fighting kimjinseokJune 15, 2024
