To really know that we have the best guarantee in price have a look at some of the things you need to check as you hunt out for quotes to compare . Season: Your travel dates can make a big difference to the total price of your safari. For example, it will cost a lot more to visit the Maasai Mara during the annual Migration (July to September) than it will to visit at another time of year. Make sure the travel dates match exactly the ones you booked.
Camps and Lodges: Safari camps and lodges vary from basic to over-the-top luxury. Although two camps may look quite similar when you visit their websites, the standard of accommodation could be very different.When comparing quotes you need to make sure that you will be booked into the same lodge.
Transport: Will you be driven to the National Park or are you choosing to save time by flying in? Have you asked for a safari van or a 4×4 Land Cruiser ? What about airport transfers? Are these included or do you have to hire a taxi on arrival? These things can make a big difference to your quote.
Inclusions and Exclusions: This is probably the most important list to check. Some Camps and Lodges are Fully Inclusive while others may offer Full Board, but exclude all drinks. Likewise, some quotes may include exclusive-use game-viewing vehicles for your family or group while others may not. Other safari enhancements such as Cultural visits, Hot-air Balloon excursions and Bush Breakfasts, for instance, may be included on one quote but not the other
