safari cost in Tanzania
Tanzania stands proudly as the epitome of safari excellence on a global scale, although it is often associated with higher costs. While we acknowledge the perception of Tanzania as a relatively expensive destination, we are committed to transparency. Our goal is to provide our esteemed guests with a comprehensive breakdown of safari expenses, ensuring clarity and understanding regarding the investment required for this unparalleled adventure.
Factors Contributing to Safari Costs in Tanzania:
Rent of Safari Vehicle & Private Guide: The core expenses include the rental of a safari vehicle accompanied by a dedicated guide. These costs are typically fixed unless guests opt to share the vehicle, thereby reducing individual expenditures.
Entrance Fees for National Parks: Entrance fees for accessing Tanzania’s renowned national parks constitute a significant portion of the total cost. For instance, navigating the Ngorongoro Crater with a safari jeep entails expenses of $300 per day, excluding an additional fee of $78.50 per person. These fees contribute to the overall priciness of the safari experience.
Accommodation: Accommodation expenses vary based on preferences for luxury and exclusivity. Opting for Silver Class Hotels offers a balanced blend of affordability and quality, with nightly rates typically starting from $520 per person. Even with a group of four, costs can average around $450 per person per day. Silver Class establishments boast scenic locations, impeccable service, and reasonable pricing, making them a preferred choice. While budget accommodations offer potential savings of $15-30 per day, they often compromise on quality and location. We consistently recommend Silver Class accommodations to ensure guests derive maximum satisfaction from their stay.
Low-Budget Accommodation Options:
For travelers seeking cost-effective alternatives, camping presents an appealing option. Tanzania offers numerous well-appointed camping sites where guests can reside in modest dome tents, catering to those with more modest budgets.
Safari Costs in Zanzibar:
Contrary to mainland safari accommodations, Zanzibar offers relatively affordable options. Guests can enjoy stays in Silver Class accommodations for as little as $40 per person per night, situated in picturesque locales along the island’s pristine beaches.
We advise our guests to carefully consider their safari budget, including preferences for accommodation and optional beach holidays in Zanzibar. By understanding individual financial constraints and vacation aspirations, we can tailor bespoke itineraries that align with each guest’s unique preferences and budgetary considerations.
