1. Is this safari safe for families with kids?

Absolutely! Safaris can be wonderfully safe and memorable for families, especially if you choose kid-friendly lodges and shorter game drives suited to younger travelers. Just be sure to book with experienced guides who know how to balance safety with a fun, educational experience!

2. How early should we book a safari?

Ideally, 6-12 months in advance is perfect, especially if you’re traveling during peak migration seasons (July-October). Booking early gives you the best choice of lodges and ensures you don’t miss out on those special wildlife moments!

3. Do we need vaccinations before traveling?

Yes, certain vaccines are recommended depending on your home country and recent travel history. Vaccines for yellow fever, hepatitis, and typhoid are common, and malaria prevention is advised for many safari areas. Consult your doctor for specifics tailored to your family or group.

4. What’s the best time for a Kenya-Tanzania safari?

The dry season (June-October) is best for wildlife sightings, including the iconic Great Migration. But even the “green season” (November-May) has perks, like lush landscapes and fewer tourists—perfect for those looking for a more serene experience who are on a budget or looking to do some photography!

5. Are safaris romantic for couples?

Oh, incredibly romantic! Think secluded lodges, stunning sunsets, and private dinners under the stars. Many lodges offer honeymoon packages with added touches like bush breakfasts, hot air balloon rides, or even a private guide. It’s an adventure for two that you’ll remember forever.

6. Will we see the "Big Five"?

There’s a 97% chance, especially if you visit top reserves like the Masai Mara, Serengeti, or Amboseli. While nature has no guarantees, your guide will make sure you have the best possible chance to see lions, elephants, leopards, rhinos, and buffalo in their natural habitat.

7. What’s the difference between a group safari and a private one?

A private safari gives you exclusive use of a vehicle and guide, allowing for a tailored experience, while group safaris are more social and budget-friendly and you are normally crowded in the vehicles as well as uncomfortable. Couples or small groups often prefer private safaris for more intimacy and flexibility in choosing activities and timing.

8. Is there internet access on safari?

Most lodges have Wi-Fi in common areas, though it might be slower than city connections. But hey, part of the magic of a safari is to “unplug” and soak in the wildlife without distractions!

9. What kind of clothes should we pack?

Pack lightweight, neutral-colored clothing for game drives, plus a warm layer for early mornings and evenings. Bring comfy walking shoes, a wide-brimmed hat, and sun protection. Many lodges offer laundry services, so you don’t need to over-pack!

10. Can we bring snacks on game drives?

Many lodges provide snacks, and some allow you to bring your own. Just remember not to leave anything behind, as safari parks aim to preserve the natural environment for animals and future visitors alike.

11. What if we’re on a budget but want a great safari?

There are excellent budget-friendly options, including mid-range lodges, group safaris, and shorter safari durations. You can still experience incredible wildlife and scenic views without splurging on luxury. Kenya and Tanzania offer a range of options to fit any budget.
