Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best time to visit for day trip safaris?

The best time for day trip safaris is during the dry season from June to October when wildlife viewing is optimal. However, the parks are beautiful year-round, with green landscapes during the wet season (November to May).

What should I pack for day trip safaris?

Pack light, neutral-colored clothing (khaki, beige), a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, insect repellent, comfortable walking shoes, binoculars, and a camera. A light jacket is recommended for early morning and evening game drives.

Are day trip safaris suitable for children?

Yes, day trip safaris are suitable for children aged 6 and above. Children under 6 may find the long drives challenging. Please inform us in advance if traveling with young children so we can make necessary arrangements.

What are the chances of seeing the Big Five?

Ngorongoro Crater has excellent chances of seeing the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino). Serengeti, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire also offer good opportunities for seeing most of the Big Five. While wildlife viewing is never guaranteed, our experienced guides maximize your chances.

What type of accommodation is included?

Accommodation is included in selected lodges/camps in Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and near Ngorongoro. We offer options from budget to luxury lodges. Please specify your preference when booking, and we'll confirm availability and pricing.

Are meals included in the day trip safaris?

Yes, all meals are included from breakfast on day 1 to dinner on the final day. We provide packed lunches during game drives and dinners at your accommodation. Special dietary requirements can be accommodated if notified in advance.

What is the group size for day trip safaris?

Our day trip safari vehicles accommodate a maximum of 6-7 passengers to ensure everyone has a window seat and optimal viewing experience. Private safaris are available at an additional cost.
