FAQ

Everything you need to know before your Kilimanjaro climb or Safari tour

What is the best time to visit Tanzania for a safari?

The best time for a Tanzania safari is during the dry season from June to October, when wildlife is easier to spot around rivers and waterholes. However, Tanzania offers excellent safari experiences all year round, with each season providing unique wildlife encounters.

How many days do I need for a Tanzania safari?

A safari of 5 to 7 days is ideal for first-time visitors, allowing enough time to explore famous parks such as Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire. Longer safaris provide a more relaxed experience and the opportunity to visit additional destinations.

Is Tanzania safe for tourists?

Yes. Tanzania is considered one of Africa’s safest travel destinations for tourists. When traveling with a licensed safari operator like Pongwa Travel, experienced guides and well-planned itineraries ensure a safe and enjoyable journey.

What should I pack for a safari?

Pack lightweight clothing in neutral colors, comfortable walking shoes, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, insect repellent, a camera, binoculars, and any personal medications. Early mornings and evenings can be cool, so a light jacket is also recommended.

Can I see the Big Five during my safari?

Yes. Tanzania is one of the best places in Africa to see the Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino. While wildlife sightings can never be guaranteed, visiting parks like Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater gives you an excellent chance.

Do I need a visa to visit Tanzania?

Most international travelers require a visa before entering Tanzania or can obtain one upon arrival, depending on their nationality. We recommend checking the latest visa requirements before your trip to ensure a smooth arrival.

Can I combine a safari with a Zanzibar beach holiday?

Absolutely! Combining a Tanzania safari with a relaxing stay in Zanzibar is one of the most popular travel options. After exciting wildlife adventures, Zanzibar offers beautiful beaches, crystal-clear waters, and a perfect place to unwind.

Are children allowed on safari?

Yes. Family safaris are a wonderful way to introduce children to nature and wildlife. We can customize itineraries, accommodations, and activities to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience for travelers of all ages.

What type of accommodation do you offer?

Pongwa Travel offers a variety of accommodation options, including luxury lodges, tented camps, mid-range lodges, and budget camping. We help you choose the option that best suits your travel style and budget.

How far in advance should I book my safari?

We recommend booking your safari at least 3 to 6 months in advance, especially if you plan to travel during the high season. Early booking ensures better lodge availability and gives you more options for your preferred travel dates.
