SAFARI TOURS

So you want to go on safari? Something you've probably always dreamed about.................

But do you know the road can be very bumpy, it can be extremely hot and dusty, expecially in the dry season. But do you know something else? It's worth it!! Just to see hundreds of animals in their natural environment, the beautiful sunsets, the endless plains of the Serengeti, the wonders of Tarangire and the magic of dawn breaking over the Ngorongoro crater.

Travel to Tanzania's world famous Game Parks in a four wheel drive vehicle with our experienced guides. Everyone has a window seat.

As well as the wide range of animals to be seen on the game drives, there are over four hundred varieties of birds to be found in this part of Africa.

Preparations & Guidance

Keys Hotel will organise your entire safari program. Transport, accommodation, meals, guides and National Park entry fee are all included. (Accommodation at Keys Hotel is not included.) All that remains for you to do is - enjoy it!

On safari, we wear casual dress, preferably light weight cotton and with subdued colours. slacks or shorts may be by both men and ladies. In some areas, particularly Ngorongoro Crater Rim, it can become chill at night, so sweaters or cardigans should be included in your luggage.

Take plenty of film for your camera with you, as films can be both scarce and expensive in some Games Parks. If there is no electricity socket in your room, Lodges will generally charge your video camera batteries at no extra cost. Take insect repellent with you - there are biting flies in lake Manyara and Tarangire at certain times of the year.

Accommodation is based on two persons sharing a twin bedded room on a half board basis; single rooms are sometimes available. Picnic lunches are provided where appropriate.

We are often asked about gratuities - these are of course, always at your discretion. It is usual to tip your driver/guide. (If they pressure you to tip them, please inform us.)

The itineraries for Camping Safaris are the same except that camping sites are used instead of lodges.

We recommend that you obtain comprehensive insurance for your trip to Tanzania and the Games Parks.

The Hotel reserves the right to alter the published safari programmes whenever necessary and will not be responsible for any loss or damage to baggage, injuries to clients, delays or cancellations.
