We recommend 4–6 months ahead for the June–October migration season, since camps in the northern Serengeti and Mara sell out early. Trips outside peak season can often be arranged in 6–8 weeks.
The packages on our Packages page are starting points. Most guests adjust the length, parks, and accommodation level — tell us your dates and interests and we'll draft a route around them.
Private vehicle and driver-guide, park fees, accommodation, and most meals on safari days. International flights, visas, tips, and personal items aren't included — we'll confirm the exact breakdown in your quote.
We accept Vodacom M-Pesa (Lipa Namba), bank transfer, and PayPal. We typically ask for a deposit to confirm camp and vehicle bookings, with the balance due before travel. Once your itinerary is confirmed, we'll send the exact payment details directly to you.
On Safari
Yes — any of our itineraries can be adjusted for families, with shorter drive days and camps that welcome children. Let us know ages when you enquire and we'll adjust the pace accordingly.
Regularly. We can pair Serengeti Untamed with Zanzibar Island Escape, and any safari can be extended with a Kilimanjaro trek — guide handoffs and transfers are arranged before you arrive.
Vehicles are private to your group by default — we don't fill remaining seats with other travelers, even on our lower-priced itineraries.
Practical Questions
Most nationalities need a visa, available on arrival or online in advance for many countries. We'll confirm requirements for your nationality once we know where you're flying from.
We recommend checking with a travel clinic 4–6 weeks before departure, as recommendations vary by country of origin and itinerary. Yellow fever certification may be required if you're arriving from certain countries.
Most camps have WiFi in common areas, though it can be slow. Signal in remote parks is patchy — we recommend telling family you'll be harder to reach for a few days if you're deep in the Serengeti or Ruaha.
