Is it safe to visit Tanzania?
Yes. Tanzania is a safe country. Incidents with wildlife are extremely rare on safaris. So, as long as you follow the rules and guidelines set out by park staff and your guide you will be safe.
When is the best time to go on a Tanzania Safari?
The dry season of June to October is the Best Time For Tanzania Safari.
How much does a Tanzania Safari Cost?
There is no set price for a safari in Tanzania. The cost varies widely depending on several factors. Overall, the cost of a Tanzania Safari can start from a minimum of 300$ and can range up to 1500$ depending upon your itinerary and accommodations.
Is Kenya or Tanzania better for Safari?
Tanzania is larger and offers more affordable safaris than Kenya. However, Kenya has a better travel infrastructure. But nothing can beat the Serengeti wildebeest migration.
How many days do you need in Serengeti?
You need at least four days to enjoy what Serengeti Park has to offer. The Serengeti national park is huge. So, four days will give you eight-game drives. Which will be sufficient to cover a large portion of the Park and view a large variety of wildlife.
Can I self-drive in Serengeti National Park?
Yes, you can! We allow self-drive safaris into the Serengeti but only with a Land Cruiser.
When is the best time to see the great Wildebeest Migration in Tanzania?
August to September is the best time to witness wildebeest river crossings in northern Serengeti. After the ‘short rains’ fall in November and December, the migration moves from Kenya's Maasai Mara down through the eastern side of Tanzania's Serengeti. The months of August, September, and October are the best time to see the great wildebeest migration in Masai Mara. After the long rains in April- May, the migration starts moving from the depleted southern plains north to the long grass plains in the western corridor.
Where To Stay During Tanzania Safari?
There are various hotels to stay in during the Tanzania Safari. However, Tanzania safari is best experienced from our tented camps. We offer a variety of budget to high-end luxury camping safaris.
