Frequently Asked Questions

What is a group joining safari?

A Tanzania group joining safari allows individual travelers or small groups to join others in a shared safari vehicle, splitting costs while experiencing the same high-quality wildlife viewing and professional guiding as private safaris.

How many people are in a group?

Our small group safaris accommodate 4-6 travelers per vehicle, ensuring everyone has a guaranteed window seat and comfortable space.

Can I join as a solo traveler?

Absolutely! Many of our participants are solo travelers who enjoy meeting like-minded adventurers from around the world.

What if minimum numbers aren’t met?

We have daily departures throughout the year. If a specific departure doesn’t reach minimum numbers, we’ll offer alternative dates or a private safari option at a supplement.

Are window seats really guaranteed?

Yes! Unlike some operators who overpack vehicles, we strictly limit group sizes to ensure every participant has their own window seat for optimal game viewing and photography.

What’s the difference between camping and lodge safaris?

Camping safaris use dome tents at public campsites within parks (more budget-friendly and authentic), while lodge safaris offer permanent structures with more amenities. Both options visit the same parks and enjoy similar game viewing.

Can I customize the itinerary?

Group joining safaris follow fixed itineraries to accommodate all participants. For customization, we recommend our private safari options.

What wildlife will I see?

While wildlife sightings can never be guaranteed, Tanzania’s Northern Circuit offers excellent opportunities to see the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, rhino), along with cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, hippos, and hundreds of bird species.

Is Tanzania safe for group safaris?

Yes, Tanzania is one of Africa’s safest safari destinations. Our experienced guides prioritize safety, and national parks have excellent security and infrastructure.

What should I pack for a group joining safari?

We provide a comprehensive packing list upon booking, but essentials include comfortable clothing in neutral colors, sun protection, binoculars, camera, insect repellent, and any personal medications.
