African Safari Cost

What will my African safari cost?

One of the first questions we ask when we starting to plan an African safari tour for our clients is: ”what budget should we work within?”

Apples for apples, we will always have the best price and strive to offer maximum value, regardless of how much you have to spend.

As a very rough rule of thumb, here are is an example of what you can expect to pay for a 10 day safari:

• Mid-range/Standard Safaris: USD3,500 - USD5,500 per person, excluding international flights 
• Top-end/Luxury Safaris: USD7,500 and above per person, excluding international flights

Please Note:

• Certain destinations carry a price premium to others (i.e remote safari areas of Botswana and Mozambique on a fully inclusive basis will cost more than a South African tour that includes areas such as Cape Town and the Garden Route)

Seasonal Price differences for a safari holiday to southern Africa

For the traveller that is flexible with their travel dates, it is possible to have a greatly discounted safari without necessarily sacrificing the quality of the safari experience. See out current specials section for more.

Green Season safaris in the safari circuit (Botswana and Namibia) will reduce your price dramatically, and travelling outside of the summer in South Africa will also yield discounts.

The pricing differences in high season versus low season is often driven primarily by visitor volumes from international travel markets (north American and European summer holidays) and by booking shoulder seasons you can find reduced rates and still have good weather.
