Check out our Q&As
-
Who will be my travelling companions on the tour?
Tour Guide
-
How much spending should I take on my Safari?
You should bring little spending money on most safaris as most things are included in your adventure price. Most people carry between $50 and $100 per person per day for all expenses. Credit cards may be used in large towns at restaurants and shops with MasterCard and Visa being most accepted. However, use may be restricted in small towns and country areas and non-existent in small retail shops. We recommend bringing US dollars in cash. Change USD$ at the airport or bank on your arrival in Tanzania. USD$ cash is acceptable in most tourist areas and can be used for tips.
-
Will I know the names and details of all the accommodation before I depart?
YES
-
Is the tour coach air conditioned?
YES
-
Can you assist with pre or post tour accommodation?
YES
-
What do you mean by "Game Drives"?
The most common way to see the wildlife of the National Parks and Conservation areas is by car. This usually means big 4×4 safari cars with open rooftops and big windows. The Savanna is huge so prepare for a long drive. Remember to listen to your guides and driver (they know a lot) and don’t step out of the car unless given the go-ahead by your guide. Big game is quite dangerous.
-
Are all the relevant entry visa’s included in the price of the tour?
NO
-
How much does a safari cost?
Safaris (and mountain climbing) can be expensive. Prices depend on the number of people on the trip, how many days of safari, and the level of comfort. Park entry fees make up a big part of the total cost. These fees pay for the important nature conservation work the TANAPA and other organizations do.
-
Is there a supplement for solo travellers?
YES
-
Will passengers from another country be participating in the tour?
YES
-
Do you require a visa for this holiday?
YES
-
What is the fitness level required to do this tour?
Normal
-
What documents do I need to travel to Tanzania?
You will need a passport valid for at least six months after your date of entry. Citizens of most countries need a tourist visa to enter Tanzania. Application details and forms can be found on the Tanzanian Embassy website. Visas can also be acquired on arrival. If you are arriving from a country in which Yellow Fever is endemic (such as Kenya), you will require an immunization certificate or health card. Remember to always check the latest COVID travel information. More health information is also available on the embassy website.
-
What time of year should I plan my trip to Tanzania?
March – April is the rainy season in Eastern Africa, which means a low season but also a lot of rain. In Zanzibar, this is not necessarily a problem as temperatures become a little lower, around 30 degrees Celsius. When it comes to Safaris, it takes a little more planning as roads can become muddy. The great migration usually ends just before April but can still be amazing in early April. We would recommend focusing on the higher altitudes, such as the Ngorongoro crater. On the plus side, rates are lower during the rainy season, and nature really shines in the wet season.
-
Is it safe to visit Tanzania?
Yes, Tanzania is a safe country to travel in. Tanzanians are warm-hearted and generous people and are eager to help and assist visitors. We recommend a bit of common-sense caution in big cities such as Dar es Salaam.
-
Are flights included in this tour?
NO

YES
-
How safe is the water and food in Tanzania?
It is best to drink bottled water when traveling through Tanzania. Steer clear of ice, raw vegetables, and salads when eating at street restaurants. On the coast, seafood and fish are usually fresh, but make sure everything is well-cooked. To be sure, we recommend a nonactive cholera vaccine such as “Dukoral”.
