Safari Planning Guide: Tips from Our Local Experts
A good Tanzania safari package is more than just a itinerary; it’s about the details. Here’s what we recommend for first-time visitors:
-
Pace Yourself: Don’t try to see everything. We recommend a minimum of 3 nights on safari and 3 on the beach to truly unwind and absorb the experience.
-
Pack Smart: Layers are key! Mornings on the Serengeti can be chilly, but it gets hot by midday. Neutral-colored clothing is best for game viewing.
-
Embrace the Culture: Always ask permission before taking photos of people. Learning a few words of Swahili like “Jambo” (Hello) and “Asante” (Thank you) will be greatly appreciated.
