Day Trips in Tanzania
Day Trips with Petit Maasai Safaris: day of adventure to make memories for a lifetime.
When was the last time you walked with giraffes? Or walked on the highest mountain in Africa?
Most of our safaris are multi-day adventures to give you the best experience in Tanzania. But if you’re strapped for time, or just want to add a day or two to a pre-existing schedule, book a day trip with us for some customized adventure, outside the safari jeep.
Our specially-designed day trips include active adventures that get you into nature and closer to the local community and the wildlife.
Swim in hot springs, go for a hike on Mount Kilimanjaro, enjoy a walking safari. The options for day trips are so exciting, you may want to do them all.
Each of our day experiences are appropriate for those with moderate fitness levels. If you have any special needs or concerns, please reach out. We are happy to assist and ensure you have the best adventure in Tanzania.

Tanzania Day Trip FAQs
Can solo travelers book day trips?
Yes! All types of travelers, including solo ravelers, couples and groups may book day trips.
If you want to keep your activity as a private tour, you may.
Solo travelers looking to connect with others may request to join a group day trip.
Please note this is subject to availability, and booking in advance is recommended.
Do I need to be fit to hike in Tanzania?
While it is recommended all that participants have a moderate fitness level, most of our day trips can be adjusted to suit your needs; be that a longer, more challenging trek, or a gentle hike.
The Shira Platuea hike and the Longido walking safari are two excellent examples of activities that allow participants to determine the distance and challenge, based on their preference.
Can I add a day trip to an existing itinerary?
Yes! You can add any of our day trips to an existing Tanzanian itinerary, no matter if you booked one of our amazing safari itineraries or if you are originally traveling with another company.
Please note the locations of our day trips begin in Arusha or Moshi, in the Northern Circuit.
Does a Day Trip include accommodation?
A Day Trip typically does not include accommodation, and in most cases, your driver-guide will pick you up in Moshi or Arusha and return you to the same location at the end of the trip.
The exception for Petit Maasai Safaris DayTtrips is the Longido 2-day Experience, which includes either overnight camping beside a traditional Maasai Boma, or at a comfortable guest house in Longido Town, before starting the exciting trek to the top of Longido Mountain.
What should I pack?
Be ready to have fun in nature. We recommend neutral colored attire for walking safaris, comfortable and sturdy walking shoes for all hikes and a swimming costume for Chemka Hot Springs.
Parts of the hikes might be muddy, slippery or steep in sections. It is advised to wear appropriate footwear and use trekking poles.
Our Travellers Reviews
Outstanding tour operator
I can't say enough good things about Bryson and Petit Maasai. Bryson handled our last-minute trip to Tanzania like he'd been working on it for months instead of a handful of days after we connected about a week before our family arrived.
Awsome
Exciting trip!!! Bryson made a private tour with masai mbome & we had a rest in mountains near Ngorongoro - everything was awsome!!! Morevover, all of our individual things we re made with great discount!Mike is great ranger too!
Kilimanjaro With Petit Maasai safaris- 5 stars!!!
We book 7 days Kilimanjaro with Petit Maasai safaris after having the safari with another company and we made it with a brilliant guide to the summit. We took the Lemosho route, starting in the rain forest and approached the camp via various tents campsites.
A great experience!
We did a safari in the northern parks of Tanzania with Petit Maasai Safaris and it was a great experience! The guide and the cook were really professional and nice with us, trying to make us feel comfortable and to satisfy our requests. Thanks a lot!
