Solo safari Tanzania: what to know
A solo safari in Tanzania, safe and sociable: join a small group or travel privately, with low single supplements and a guide who looks after you throughout.
What to know before you go
-
Solo safari Tanzania, step by step
Travelling alone is easy with us: we meet you at the airport, your guide is with you throughout, and camps are used to looking after solo guests. You can travel privately or join a small group to meet other travellers and share costs.
-
Keeping the single supplement low
Many camps charge a single supplement. We choose places where it is low, suggest the green season when some camps waive it, and offer small group departures that share the vehicle cost.
-
Who it suits
Solo travellers of every age, including many women travelling alone. Our article on whether Tanzania is safe answers the usual questions.

Questions about Solo Traveller
Solo Traveller: how many days do I need?
Our Solo Traveller trips run from 4 to 10 days, and most guests choose about 7. Fewer days mean more time on the road; more days let you slow down and stay longer where the animals are.
Solo Traveller: when is the best time to go?
The best time is June to October. Every month has something, though, so read our guide to the best time to visit Tanzania before you choose your dates.
Solo Traveller: how much does it cost?
The price depends on the season, the number of people and the lodges you choose. We send a clear, all-inclusive proposal for your dates within 24 hours, and our guide to the cost of a Tanzania safari explains the main costs.
Solo Traveller: can I add Zanzibar or Kilimanjaro?
Yes. Zanzibar is about an hour's flight from Arusha or the Serengeti, and Kilimanjaro is an hour's drive from Arusha. See our Zanzibar holidays and Kilimanjaro routes.
Solo Traveller: is the trip private?
Yes. Every trip we run is private, with your own vehicle and guide, and we adapt the route, the lodges and the pace to you. Start with the trip planner or contact us.
