Our advice

Start with the right questions.

A well-designed Tanzania safari typically starts from around £5,000 per person, while longer journeys using high-end camps can rise considerably. Season, camp location, internal flights and private guiding all have a major effect.

We explain the trade-offs before preparing a detailed proposal, using your dates, priorities and budget rather than a standard formula.

01

What changes the price

July to October and the festive period command the highest rates. Mobile migration camps, fly-in southern or western circuits, private vehicles and premium room categories also increase the cost. Travelling in November, early December or the greener months can provide better value, but weather and camp closures need careful consideration.

02

What should be included

A clear proposal should distinguish accommodation, meals, park fees, conservation charges, scheduled flights, road transfers and activities. International flights, visas, travel insurance, tips and some premium drinks are normally separate. We show the assumptions rather than hiding them inside one figure.

03

Where to spend more

Spend first on location, guiding and enough time in each area. A well-positioned camp can reduce long drives and place you close to the wildlife experience that matters in that season. Expensive architecture is less valuable if the route itself is weak.
