What travelers are saying

"We joined the Intrepid “Real Italy Food Tour” and enjoyed it thoroughly. Our tour guide, Micol, was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of good information. It seems Micol knew many of the staff of the venues we visited, including the pasta making class we attended. Our group of 11 travelers was extremely compatible, which greatly added to the fun and enjoyment."

What travelers are saying

"We spent two wonderful weeks touring several of the best destinations in Portugal & Spain with a group of 16 people. Our guide (Fredy) was from Spain and intimately familiar with the region, including its rich history, attractions, and food/beverages. The tour was well-paced using a combinations of private vehicles (small buses and cabs), trains, and an airplane ride as well as a fair amount of walking to get around these two beautiful countries. We extended our stay in Lisbon to see more attractions and took a side trip to Fatima, Obidos, and Nazare that was also excellent. Would have liked to have a bit more time in a couple of the cities, but we'll just have to plan another trip!"

Arusha Tour Selection Trips

  • Arusha is filled with local safari or mountain climbing tour operators who may or may not be reliable. To assure yourself the highest quality experience and maintain your peace of mind, it’s best to book in advance online with an outfitter who has a proven track record.
  • To find reliable outfitters online and get the dates and quality you want, be sure to check their Stride profile before booking.
  • It’s always a good idea to schedule a day or two in Arusha before your safari or climbing expedition to adjust to time changes, get gear together (of applicable), and rest after a long flight.
  • December to February is probably the best time to climb Mt. Meru, when the views of Kilimanjaro are clearest and the fall rains have passed.
  • A big advantage to booking your safari ahead is that your outfitter or guide will probably meet you at Kilimanjaro International Airport (about 40 miles from town) and take you to your pre-booked hotel, a welcome perk after a long flight.
