Our Private Tanzania Safari Tours: Your Unforgettable Adventures

Private encounters or group adventures?

Group adventures and private safari tours in Tanzania each have their strong points. Travel with a group and you will get to know interesting people who share your passion for nature, culture and wildlife. But as private tours are our focus here, let us take a closer look at what makes them so appealing.

Group Sizing

The first and biggest advantage of small-group and private VIP tours in Tanzania is that they are… well, private. You will never feel like one of those little sausages squeezed into a packet with all the others. Instead, you decide how big your private tour is. Put simply, the group consists of exactly the people you invite, and that can be as few as two.

On a general safari, the operator may fill the group with as many people as it can comfortably carry, which can be as many as 20.

Flexible Itinerary

A private tour also gives you far more flexibility over the itinerary of your Tanzania safari. In fact it gives you total freedom: you only go to the parks, reserves and areas that appeal to you, you plan particular activities on purpose, and you set off in search of that one animal you have always wanted to see.

On a general or public tour, the itinerary is normally fixed in advance. There may be a little wiggle room depending on the group as a whole, but you cannot shape the package around your own preferences.

Tour Pricing

One more big difference between the two is price: private tours are usually quite a bit more expensive than general or public tours. That said, a whole range of benefits makes the higher price worthwhile. Scroll past the photos to read more.

Ideas for your private safari tour in Tanzania

Now that you understand why a private tour in Tanzania could suit you, let us consider what it might include. Tanzania is a remarkably varied country, and there are many kinds of tour to choose from.

Safaris – With such an enormous amount of wildlife (birds included) in Tanzania, a safari is one of the most popular kinds of tour. Whether you want to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration in full flow or take a short four-day trip to immerse yourself in the wonders of Tanzania’s national parks… the possibilities are nearly endless.

Hiking and Trekking – Tanzania is by no means a mountainous country, yet it is home to Mount Kilimanjaro (the highest mountain in Africa) and a whole series of other peaks. So if hiking, trekking or mountain climbing is your thing, there is a tour waiting for you.

Family Tours – For plenty of people, a tour is only complete with their children alongside them. Happily, there is a whole range of family-friendly tour options that are safe and fun for everyone in the family. They run from the seven-day Tanzania safari up to the eighteen-day safari, which takes in the very best of African wildlife along with the pristine beaches of Zanzibar.
