12 days Kenya Tanzania sharing/ group Safari cost

A 12-day Kenya-Tanzania group safari is an exciting adventure that allows you to explore the rich wildlife and diverse landscapes of these two East African countries. The cost of such a safari can be shared among the group members to make it more affordable for everyone. Here’s a breakdown of how the costs might be divided
First, it’s essential to understand that the total cost of a group safari depends on several factors, including the number of people in the group, the type and standard of accommodation, the mode of transportation, and the activities included in the itinerary.Once these costs have been determined,you can be evenly distributed among all group members. For instance, if there are six people in the group, each person would pay approximately one-sixth of the total cost. This method ensures that every member contributes fairly to cover the expenses.

However, it’s important to note that some costs may not be evenly distributable. For example, if one person requires a single room or has additional dietary requirements, they may need to cover those extra costs themselves. Similarly, if some members arrive earlier or stay later than the rest of the group, they may need to pay for additional nights’ accommodation or airport transfers.To facilitate this cost sharing process effectively, it’s recommended that each group member pays their share upfront or as soon as possible after joining the tour. This approach helps ensure that all expenses are covered and reduces financial stress during the trip. Additionally, using a trusted tour operator or travel agency can simplify this process by handling payments and logistics on behalf of the group

It has been described as one of the great natural wonders of the world. Eight million years ago, the Ngorongoro Crater was an active volcano but its cone collapsed, forming the crater that is 610 meters deep 20 kilometres in diameter and covers an area of 311 sq. km. Spectacular as it is the crater accounts for just a tenth of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The crater is home to many species of wild game and birds,with the exception of impala and topi (due to fierce competition with the wildebeest) and the giraffe (because there is not much to eat at tree level) almost every species of African plains mammal lives in the crater including the endangered black rhino, and the densest population of predators in Africa. The birdlife which includes the flamingo is mainly seasonal and is also affected by the ratio of soda to fresh water in Lake Magadi on the crater floor. Dinner and overnight at crater lodge.
