We chose Tanzania and Zanzibar for our honeymoon. Two dream weeks between the breathtaking landscapes of the Tanzanian savannah and the paradise beaches of Zanzibar. Thanks to Africa Bucket List, each day was a new adventure. I recommend them without hesitation.

Amazing organisation with a great guide. We saw all the Big Five on our 4-day private safari in Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. The vehicle was perfect, the lodges were stunning. Do not hesitate to book.

What is the best time to go on a safari in Tanzania? +

The best period is the long dry season, from June to October, as wildlife gathers around water sources and the vegetation is less dense. However, the green season (from January to March) is ideal for births and for photographers. Each season has its magic!

How much does a private safari in Tanzania cost? +

The price of a private safari varies depending on the duration, the parks visited, the type of accommodation (tented camps, charming lodges, or luxury), and the size of your group. On average, a quality safari can start from €300 per day per person. Our tailor-made itineraries allow you to respect your budget while living an exceptional experience.

What is the "Big Five" and where can you see them? +

The "Big Five" is a group of five iconic animals: the lion, the leopard, the elephant, the buffalo, and the rhino. Tanzania is one of the best destinations in the world to see them. The Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park are the best places to have a chance to see them all.

Is a safari in Tanzania safe? +

Absolutely. Traveling on a safari in Tanzania is very safe, as long as you travel with a reputable agency. Our expert local guides accompany you at all times, and the national parks are protected environments. The accommodations are secure and offer optimal comfort.

Do I need vaccinations or special formalities? +

For entry into the country, a visa is mandatory. We strongly recommend applying for an e-Visa online before your departure. Regarding health, it is essential to consult your doctor or an international vaccination center 4 to 6 weeks before your departure for personalized advice.

What should I pack for a safari? +

We advise light clothing and neutral colors for the safari, and warm clothes for mornings and evenings. Don't forget a hat, high-factor sunscreen, sunglasses, mosquito repellent, and a pair of binoculars! A small personal first-aid kit is also recommended.
