A Safari For Every Budget, A little-known fact about African safari vacations is that you can make your trip fit your style, your wants, and your budget. Want to enjoy the wild world in a stylish way? Safari is the best place to live a high-class life. Safaris are great for people who like to travel on or off-road, but if that’s not your thing, they’ll still be happy to help you out.

Luxury and well-off people used to be the only ones who could go on safari. Think of steamer bags and a staff of valets to help. There are now a lot more places to travel and exciting things to do. Anyone, from bankers to wanderers, can easily slip into the friendly world of our wildlife and beautiful national parks.

What, then, makes a safari cheap… or not?

The first thing that will affect the cost of your trip is the amount of time you have. Do you plan to go on a short trip or a 14-day trip?

That doesn’t mean a longer trip can’t be paid for; there are just a few things that will help you save money.

People who are high rollers like to travel during busy times. But the best deals are from April to June, when it’s not as busy.

Kenya’s Amboseli National Park is home to elephants and the mountain Kilimanjaro.
How many people are going with you? It’s better with more people, and the price per person goes down as the group size grows. The prices go down even more if you choose to go on safari with a group of other people who also love safaris.

If money isn’t an issue, on the other hand, you and your partner can go on safari alone for months during peak season, stay at the nicest hotels, and have a great time.

Your accommodations are another thing that will affect how much your African vacation costs. We have cabins and tented camps for all kinds of budgets, from cheap to comfortable to fancy.

All of the places we offer to stay are clean, safe, cozy, and have internet and Wi-Fi access. Some of the fancier places offer things like babysitting, massages, spa treatments, Ayurveda, dinner at a Maasai homestead, and more.

We have a lot of nice lodges and tented camps for people whose income is somewhere between luxury and economy. There are also lots of family-friendly activities, like swimming pools, guided walking safaris, and dances around the boma.

A big budget isn’t necessary to enjoy your safari in Africa, but if you want to add some extra touches to make it even better, here are some that will definitely make you remember it:

If your trip takes you to the Masai Mara, you can take a hot air balloon tour if you want to. You’ll get up with the sun and float over the park as the land and animals below come to life.

Along the border with the Mara, you can choose to visit some of the private conservancies, where there aren’t many other safari-goers and you’ll see a lot of animals with your own private guide.

Finally, a fly-in tour is a great way to get there in style. You’ll leave from Nairobi or the coast of Kenya and land on an airport next to the parks you choose. In a 4×4 Safari Jeep, one of our guides will be waiting for you. A wonderful way to start your adventure trip.
