Frequently Asked Questions

How do I book a Tanzania safari with Kisiwani Adventures? +
Fill in our free quote form above or WhatsApp us directly on +255 767 871 795. We will reply within 24 hours with a personalised itinerary and pricing. Once you approve the plan, we require a 30% deposit to confirm your booking. The balance is paid 30 days before your safari begins.
Can I book a safari from Zanzibar? +
Absolutely — this is one of our most popular packages. We arrange flights from Zanzibar to Arusha (approximately 1 hour), conduct your safari of 2–5 days, then fly you back to Zanzibar. All flights, transfers, accommodation and meals are included in our Zanzibar safari packages. Starting from $649 per person for a 2-day safari.
What is included in your safari packages? +
All our safari packages include: private 4WD safari vehicle, professional certified local guide, all national park and conservation fees, accommodation (lodge or camping as specified), all meals during safari, bottled water, airport/hotel transfers, and 24/7 support. For Zanzibar safaris, internal flights are also included. International flights to Tanzania are not included unless specified.
How much does a Tanzania safari cost? +
Our safari packages start from $649 per person for a 2-day safari from Zanzibar. A classic 5-day Northern Circuit safari starts from $1,979 per person. Prices vary depending on accommodation type (camping vs lodge vs luxury), group size, travel dates and specific routes. Booking direct with us is 20–40% cheaper than booking through a European or American travel agency. Request a free personalised quote for exact pricing.
Is Tanzania safe for tourists? +
Yes — Tanzania is one of Africa's most stable and tourist-friendly countries. It has been politically stable for decades. Crime against tourists in national parks is extremely rare. We recommend standard precautions: keep valuables secure, use reputable transportation, and follow your guide's instructions in the parks. Health precautions include malaria prophylaxis, yellow fever vaccination and travel insurance. We provide full safety briefings to all guests before departure.
What is the best time to visit Tanzania? +
The best time for wildlife safaris is July–October (dry season) — this is when the Great Migration river crossings happen and animals concentrate around water sources. January–February is excellent for the calving season in the southern Serengeti and costs 25–35% less. Zanzibar is beautiful year-round but best June–October and December–February. We are happy to advise on the best timing for your specific interests and budget.
Do you offer private guides for international tour operators? +
Yes — we operate as a DMC (Destination Management Company) for international travel agencies and tour operators. We handle all ground logistics in Tanzania including guides, vehicles, accommodation, park fees and transfers. Contact us at kisiwaniadventure@gmail.com or WhatsApp +255 767 871 795 for our wholesale rates and partnership information.
