Frequently asked questions

How much does an African safari cost from Australia?+

Pricing depends on season, destinations and lodge style. A fully planned itinerary includes accommodation, guiding, transfers, park access and support throughout your trip. We suggest a daily budget of $1,000 to $2,000 AUD per person, excluding international flights.

When is the best time to go on safari?+

Africa is a year-round destination. Timing depends on what you want to see, whether that is the migration, predator activity or a quieter travel period.

Which country is best for a first-time trip to Africa?+

We often suggest South Africa, as it is an easy entry point with a mix of landscapes and city travel. Kenya is another classic choice, or Tanzania for the Great Migration.

Why book with Australian safari specialists?+

You get local support, clear communication and help if plans change. One dedicated expert manages your whole trip instead of you dealing with several overseas operators.

How far in advance should I book?+

We recommend 8 to 14 months ahead, especially for peak wildlife seasons and popular lodges. Planning early gives you the best availability and routing.

Is Africa safe for families?+

Yes. With proper planning Africa is very safe for families. We use family-friendly lodges, organised transfers and 24/7 support so you can travel with confidence.
