To enhance your comfort, laundry service is available, allowing you to keep your clothes fresh throughout your safari. Additionally, Wi-Fi is provided in most lodges or camps, so you can stay connected with family or friends or share your safari experience with others.
All necessary park fees and concession fees are included in the package. These fees help support the conservation of the parks and support local communities. The Tourism Development Levy (TDL) is also covered, which helps fund sustainable tourism efforts in the region.
The safari experience includes twice-daily game drives, in the morning and afternoon, with experienced guides who are well-versed in the local wildlife. These drives give you the opportunity to spot a wide variety of animals, from the Big Five to the lesser-known species, and learn about the ecosystems you're exploring.
Domestic flights between key destinations (e.g., from Arusha to Serengeti or Tarangire) are included in your package, providing a smooth transition between the parks and ensuring more time for safari adventures rather than long road transfers.
The package includes all local taxes such as the 1% bed levy, Value Added Tax (VAT), and service charges. These are required by the Tanzanian government and help to support the infrastructure and services that benefit tourists and the local economy.
Tour Exclusion
Travel insurance is not included, so guests are advised to purchase comprehensive travel insurance for coverage on health, cancellations, and other unforeseen circumstances. Any boutique purchases made at lodges or camps, as well as voluntary contributions to visit local villages (e.g., Masai Village), and tips for guides, drivers, or lodge staff are not included in the price. These are personal expenses and are paid directly by guests.
International flights from your home country to Tanzania are not included. You’ll need to arrange and pay for your flights to Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) or another arrival airport.
Personal travel insurance is not included in the package. It is highly recommended to purchase insurance that covers medical expenses, trip cancellations, and lost luggage during your travels.
Any additional costs related to the storage or transport of excess luggage, either before or during the safari, are not included. It's advisable to pack light, as many safari vehicles have limited storage space.
Any bank fees, such as those related to credit card transactions or currency exchange, are not included. Additionally, any services or experiences not explicitly listed in the inclusions—such as additional activities, spa services, or special requests—will incur extra charges.
