Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to visit Eretoto Adventures?
Safari packages with Eretoto Adventures range from $200–$750 USD per person per day, depending on lodge tier (budget, mid-range, or luxury), park selection, and group size [1]. A typical 4-day Serengeti and Ngorongoro safari costs $1,600–$3,000 USD per person including park fees, accommodation, meals, and guide services. Kilimanjaro climbs range $1,500–$3,500 USD depending on route and duration. Prices typically exclude international flights and travel insurance.
What is the best time to visit Eretoto Adventures?
June to October (dry season) offers the best wildlife viewing with comfortable temperatures and concentrated animal populations around water sources. July–September is peak migration season in the Serengeti, when over 1.5 million wildebeest and zebras move northward—the most dramatic wildlife spectacle on Earth. December to February brings lush green landscapes and good sightings with fewer tourists. Avoid November and March–May when heavy rains can close secondary park roads.
What wildlife can you see at Eretoto Adventures?
Eretoto Adventures safaris across Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire provide excellent chances to see all Big Five animals: lions (large prides), elephants (herds of 50+ in Tarangire), buffalo, leopards, and black rhinos (Ngorongoro Crater) [1]. Over 500 bird species inhabit these parks, including secretary birds, crowned cranes, and colorful bee-eaters. Expect to see zebras, giraffes, hippos, and massive wildebeest herds during migration season (July–September).
How do you get to Eretoto Adventures?
Fly into Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), 50 km south of Arusha, or Arusha Airport (ARK), 5 km from Eretoto Adventures headquarters. From Arusha, it's a 2–6 hour drive to major parks: 2 hours to Tarangire, 3 hours to Ngorongoro Crater, 6 hours to Serengeti. Eretoto Adventures arranges all ground transfers and can coordinate charter flights directly to Seronera Airstrip within Serengeti for faster access.
Is Eretoto Adventures good for families with children?
Yes, Eretoto Adventures welcomes families with children and offers family-friendly itineraries. Game drives are suitable for children 5+ years old; younger children may find long drives challenging. The company can arrange shorter daily drives, cultural village visits, and lodge-based activities like nature walks. Kilimanjaro climbs are recommended for children 10+ with good fitness; Mount Meru (4,565 meters) is a more accessible trekking alternative. Discuss age-specific needs when booking.
How many days do you need at Eretoto Adventures?
A minimum 3–4 day safari allows you to explore one major park (Serengeti, Ngorongoro, or Tarangire) and see diverse wildlife. A 5–7 day safari combines multiple parks and maximizes Big Five sightings and migration viewing. Kilimanjaro climbs require 5–8 days depending on route (Marangu is 5 days; Machame is 6–7 days for better acclimatization). Combining a Kilimanjaro climb with a post-summit safari typically takes 8–10 days total.
Where should I stay at Eretoto Adventures?
Eretoto Adventures offers custom accommodation options across budget, mid-range, and luxury lodges near all major parks. Budget options include basic safari camps ($50–$100 USD per night). Mid-range lodges offer comfortable rooms, good food, and scenic locations ($150–$300 USD per night). Luxury lodges provide high-end amenities and exclusive experiences ($300–$800+ USD per night). The company coordinates all bookings based on your preferences and budget.
