Safari in Tanzania travel Vlog. I went on a 5 day long safari in Tanzania and in this vlog I will share with you my experience visiting Tarangire and Serengeti National Park & share what doing a safari in Africa is really like. Is it worth the money (budget vs luxury safari)? What to know before going on a safari in Tanzania & what I would do differently?

  • So interesting to see your experience! I am a qualified safari guide and ran a luxury lodge in Kenya.. I’ve experienced both sides, travelling kruger on a total budget staying in tents with my mates, or running a volunteering lodge in South Africa vs the luxury experience I ran in Kenya which was starting price of $1000 per night. So wow for the industry, this is cheap cheap. I’m now working as a safari consultant and the average safari spend from my company is $32,000 (6-250k range). You definitely pay for what you get, but at the end of the day I’d be sitting with my volunteers who’ve paid £100 per night watching the same lions as the car next to me from the luxury lodge who’d paid 10x more.. so the animal experience is often similar, but its the experience around the safari you pay for… the G&T drink stops, the luxury breakfasts, the infinity pool where elephants come to drink. I would say though, the best thing about the expensive holidays is you often get exclusivity- its not uncommon to go cheap and be sat in a sighting with 10 other cars!! Which can ruin the experience for some. Just some thoughts for anyone who is interested! I recommend Yellow Zebra Safaris if anyone wants anymore information

  • You booked your safari when you arrived in Africa , in your case from what I saw you were lucky. I would suggest to anyone do your research into different tour companies before you come some are much better than others. The more expensive the safari you tend to get better guides which can make such a difference to your stay.

    • Yes, I'm not safari guider but I'm Tanzanian. Having seen ur question unanswered I've seen better to reply it. Here it's easier than a word itself. The cost of safari, people and environment ilself are quite friendly. It's u to have such determination. Come and explore safari wonders which you can come across nowhere else on the planet.

  • When you arrived and started looking at safari options, do you recall what mid-range private safaris cost? Wondering whether to wait until we arrive before booking. I have a feeling it's just the budget ones that are probably a bit cheaper 'on the ground'. Also, I'm guessing you just met new people on the group tour? Or are these friends you went with? (I may have missed this in the video somewhere, sorry!) Great video btw!
