Exactly what you pay for — no hidden fees, no surprises.
One of the most common questions we receive is about what's really included in the price — and where the money goes. This guide breaks down every component of a typical 1-day Mikumi fly-in safari so you can understand exactly what you're paying for. We believe in complete transparency.
The largest single variable. Solo: ~$420. Two people: ~$390 each. Four people: ~$350 each. The vehicle and guide cost is shared across your group.
Sharing safaris split the vehicle cost with strangers (~4–6 people total) bringing the price to $350/person. Private means exclusive use — higher per-person cost, total flexibility.
Different parks charge different entry fees. Ngorongoro Crater conservation fees are higher than Mikumi or Selous. Northern Circuit parks generally cost more due to longer flights.
Peak season (Jun–Oct) commands slightly higher accommodation rates for overnight safaris. Day-trip prices remain relatively stable year-round.
