1. What Type of a Safari?
We offer you a variety of safaris, from luxury safaris with deluxe accommodation and internal flights to camping safaris where you sleep in tents out in the open, with only the basic amenities available. You may choose to add a variety of activities into your tour, such as walking safaris, mountain climbing, or more luxury options such as golf, fishing and water sports.


2. How Do I My Get A Suitable Safari?
The best thing is to ask us to tailor a safari to suit your needs. We don’t charge any extra fee for this. We simply need to know what your preferences are. What number of days you have available and how much you intend to spend? Within a day or two many clients manage to finalize their tailored itinerary with us.

3. How long should a safari be?
Obviously the longer you are on safari the more you see at a relaxed pace of travel. However, we offer safaris ranging from 3 days to 30 days in length. The general rule is to allow at least 2 nights {3 days} at each safari location, though there are locations where 1 night (2 days) is practical. The minimum suggested length of safari in any African country is at least 7 days. A more complete trip would need at least 14 days.
 
4. When to Come on a Safari:
Kenya and Tanzania generally have a mild, tropical climate, with moderate changes of temperature through the year. There are no winters or summers as such for the whole of East Africa and parts of Southern Africa. There are 2 distinct rainy seasons, from April to early June and the other from October to November. December to February is generally warm and sunny.  The great climate in East Africa without extreme changes will allow visitors to experience enjoy either on safari or beach holiday virtually all year round without the climate being a factor for consideration.
In terms of wildlife, July to October presents a good time to see the annual wildebeest migration in the Masai Mara in Kenya when the reserve is literally teeming with wildlife. However other times of the year yield great wildlife sighting too, not least in part because other parks and reserves do not experience fluctuations in animals numbers due to migration.
In terms of prices, the annual low season from 1st April to end of June is the cheapest time to travel !
 
5. Which Locations Do I choose?
The great thing about an African Safari is that virtually all national parks offer satisfying sights to the traveller. However, there are some better than others. In Kenya, the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Samburu and Amboseli are recommended while in Tanzania the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara make for good safari locations. However, those willing to go to less famous locations are equally rewarded, as these places tend to be less touristy and offer peace and quiet. Locations such as Lake Baringo and Tsavo in Kenya, Selous and Ruaha in Tanzania are such off the circuit locations which offer scenic beauty, wildlife and basic tourist facilities.

6.  Private Safari or Group Tour
A group tour is often cheaper but then cannot be customized to your needs and does not offer the flexibility and personal freedom that one will find with a private safari. A private safari gives a much better and a more joyful safari experience - you literally get a chance to witness and appreciate the sights and sounds of Africa at your own pace. Your safari is not rigid, you choose locations, accommodation and duration. Keep in mind also that with a private safari you can for example change your game viewing drive timings to suit your taste, or stop along the way to take photos, or just for a brief stop to enjoy a cold drink and admire the view-whenever you feel like -within reason of course !

7. How do I choose the Hotels and Lodges?
We have a whole section dedicated to Hotels and Lodges with a description and pictures to aid you in your choice. Please Click here for this section. However, we are in the best position to recommend you a safari lodge or a hotel. Our staffs has been there, inspected the facilities, got invaluable client feedback and just know what’s what - take advantage of our experience and local knowledge and let us suggest the right accommodation for your trip -it’s that easy! Admittedly, there are many lodges and hotels which offer equally good quality accommodation - however what we offer you depends on your budget and specific needs. There are good safari camps priced at US$ 350 per person per night and there are also some good, awards winning lodges priced at US$ 100 per person per night. With such a range available, we try and get you the accommodation close to your budget while meeting your needs - quality is never on compromise and we do not offer sub standard accommodation to our clients.
