What a private Tanzania safari costs
One clear promise: every journey is private, priced per person per day, with your own private vehicle and guide.
Private
from $600
per person per day
Characterful lodges and classic tented camps inside the parks, chosen for location and view. More space, pools, and a slower, more private rhythm.
7 days from $4,200 per person
Always included
- Private 4x4 Land Cruiser with pop-up roof and window seat guaranteed
- Professional English-speaking Tanzanian guide
- All park and conservation area fees
- Accommodation on full-board safari basis
- Bottled drinking water throughout the safari
- Airport or hotel transfers as per the itinerary
What changes the price
- Season: July to October and the calving season are busiest.
- Where you stay: in-park camps cost more than lodges at the edge.
- Flights: flying into the Serengeti saves days on the road.
- Group size: sharing a vehicle with family or friends lowers the cost each.
