Essential Experiences to Complete Your Luxury African Safari
On an African safari, adventure knows no bounds, extending beyond typical wildlife encounters to reveal a thrilling array of unique experiences just waiting to be explored.
Wildlife Expedition
Wildlife excursions are the heart of any safari adventure, taking you deep into national parks in specialized safari vehicles to witness Africa’s incredible wildlife and sweeping landscapes up close. Led by seasoned guides, these excursions reveal fascinating insights into animal behaviors, natural habitats, and the delicate balance of the savannah ecosystem, making each journey an unforgettable dive into the wild.
Wildlife Treks
In designated areas of Tanzania’s national parks where predator risks are low, guided wilderness walks are permitted, offering a unique on-foot exploration of the landscape. These safaris are led by armed rangers to ensure visitor safety, with top spots for this immersive experience including select regions within Arusha, Tarangire, and Serengeti National Parks.
Nighttime Nature Drive
Nighttime wildlife excursions, available in special locations like Lake Manyara, unveil a hidden side of the savannah as it comes alive after dark. These thrilling drives provide the chance to spot elusive nocturnal animals—like porcupines, aardvarks, genets, and civet cats—that are seldom visible during the day. It’s a rare opportunity to witness the unique rhythms of the savannah’s nighttime ecosystem
Chimpanzee Tracking
Mahale Mountains and Gombe Stream National Parks stand out as top destinations for encountering chimpanzees in their natural habitat. These parks, famed for Jane Goodall’s pioneering ape research, offer a rare glimpse into the lives of this endangered species within pristine, forested landscapes

Top questions travelers ask about African safari tours
What's the Best time to go on a Safari?
The best time for an African safari in Tanzania depends on your travel style and budget! If you’re up for a unique experience, try the rainy season (November–December and mid-March–May). This period is wallet-friendly, with fewer travelers and amazing deals on lodgings. However, be prepared for occasional showers, and sometimes even all-day rains.
For clear skies and prime wildlife sightings, the dry season (January–mid-March and June–October) is ideal. Sunny days draw the most visitors, so rates and crowds increase, especially around the festive season in December.
Our top recommendation? The ‘in-between’ months! Late October, early March, and early June offer the perfect mix: light crowds, good weather, and the excitement of the changing season. These quieter, transitional months promise excellent game drives and a more serene safari experience.
Can I come with children on a Safari?
With family safaris on the rise—now making up over 45% of visitors—Africa’s wild beauty is attracting more young explorers than ever. While some lodges require children to be at least five, many allow kids as young as four, who are often spellbound by the breathtaking landscapes and exotic animals, from the Ngorongoro Crater to Victoria Falls. Preparing your little ones beforehand can make the experience even richer! Try introducing African-themed books, games, or crafts before the trip to spark their curiosity.
A Tanzanian safari is a thrilling, family-friendly adventure, but parents should stay alert when out in the wild. Keeping kids close in the vast wilderness ensures a safe, unforgettable experience for everyone!”
Best destinations to go on a Safari in Africa?
For a truly unforgettable safari, Tanzania leads the pack! Named the World’s Leading Safari Destination in 2023, it offers a blend of breathtaking parks and a well-developed infrastructure, making it ideal for both safety and adventure seekers.
Kenya, with the iconic Maasai Mara and Amboseli National Park, also shines as an East African gem. In southern Africa, Botswana’s Chobe National Park, South Africa’s Kruger and reserves near Cape Town, and Namibia’s stunning landscapes offer diverse wildlife and scenery.
For those drawn to legendary sites, Zambia and Zimbabwe are must-visits, home to the magnificent Victoria Falls and unique reserves like Matobo and Hwange National Parks. Meanwhile, Uganda and Rwanda offer the rare chance to encounter mountain gorillas, adding an extraordinary dimension to any safari experience
What is the best time to trek Mount Kilimanjaro?
The best times to trek Mount Kilimanjaro are during the dry seasons, which generally offer clearer skies, more stable weather, and a more enjoyable trekking experience. Here’s a breakdown of ideal times:
1. January to Mid-March
- Weather: Clear, warm days with minimal rain, though it can get chilly at higher altitudes.
- Benefits: Fewer crowds and vibrant scenery as this is the end of the short rainy season.
- Drawbacks: Occasionally cloudy afternoons, but overall ideal for photography and visibility.
2. June to October
- Weather: Generally dry, sunny, and clear, with comfortable trekking temperatures at lower elevations.
- Benefits: Peak trekking season with great conditions, and many climbers, making for a social experience.
- Drawbacks: The trails are busiest, and accommodations book up quickly, so advanced planning is essential.
Off-Peak Months:
While the rainy seasons (April–May and November–December) see fewer trekkers, conditions can be challenging due to muddy trails and frequent rain. However, these months offer a lush, green landscape and a quieter experience for those willing to take on the extra difficulty.
Choosing the Right Time:
For a balanced experience, late June to early July and late September to early October offer the advantages of good weather with slightly lighter crowds, making them ideal for a rewarding trek up Kilimanjaro.
