Solo travelers can hire a car and a driver from Arusha and Mwanza and stay in a camp inside the park, joining up with fellow travelers on game drives from your Lodge or Camp, or travelling in their vehicle. Another option is booking a stay at one of the many all-inclusive Lodges across the National Park’s regions and doing a fly-in safari. Take a small charter plane to the closest airstrip servicing your Lodge, and start your first game drive as you are picked up from the runway in the safari vehicle. Enjoy daily game drives as part of an all-inclusive package, as well as other activities such as nature walks and Masai cultural visits where you will be able to join other guests.

Great Adventure Safaris offer group trips to Serengeti National Park in Tanzania but as a solo traveler, it is often as much a part of the trip to meet and share experiences with like-minded travelers. There are plenty of ways of getting into the bush and share the experience with others, without the need to pay a fortune for the privilege.

We still tailor-make the itinerary to suit you and your timings and budget but, through years of experience with properties and locations, we can suggest certain properties that offer shared dining facilities, shared game viewing opportunities and give you a hosted stay.

Where to go in Tanzania on your solo safari?

As Great Adventure Safaris the areas we recommend for solo travelers is northern Tanzania. Here we offer several safaris to Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park.

Many of these trips involve mobile camps, while others are lodge-based safaris – so the choice for solo travelers is very wide. We also work with several expert guides, such as SAIDY MBOJA, who lead specialist safaris across the region – these safaris tend to be more expensive, but they do feature the best properties and guarantee a very high level of guiding. A specialist guide would be based at the property you visit, accompanying you on private game drives, or he/she would accompany you throughout your trip.
