Absolutely! All our Tanzania safari tours are fully customizable. You can adjust the number of days, destinations, lodges, and activities to match your preferences, whether you want a luxury, mid-range, or family-friendly safari.
What is the payment process?
To confirm your booking, we require a deposit. The remaining balance is due before the safari starts. We accept secure bank transfers and other payment methods provided by our team.
What is the best time to go on a Tanzania safari?
The dry seasons — June to October and January to February — are ideal for wildlife viewing. However, each season offers unique experiences, such as lush landscapes during the wet season and bird migrations.
Do you provide airport transfers?
Yes! Our team coordinates all transfers, including domestic flights, road travel, and airport pickups, ensuring a smooth and stress-free safari experience.
Do I need travel insurance?
Yes. Travel insurance is strongly recommended to cover health, trip cancellations, or emergencies during your safari.
What types of accommodation are available?
We offer luxury lodges, mid-range lodges, and tented camps located close to wildlife areas. All options are safe, comfortable, and provide a true safari experience.
Are safaris suitable for children or families?
Yes. Children above 6 years old are welcome. For younger children, we recommend private tours to ensure safety and flexibility.
What meals are included during the safari?
Full board (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) is included at all lodges and camps. Special dietary requirements can be accommodated upon request.
Will I see the Big Five on my safari?
Sightings depend on wildlife behavior, but our expert guides maximize your chances to see lions, elephants, leopards, buffalo, and rhinos in parks like Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Ruaha.
Can I do a walking safari or photography tour?
Yes! We offer walking safaris and photography-focused tours, led by experienced guides who know the best spots for wildlife, landscapes, and cultural experiences.
Are your safaris environmentally responsible?
Absolutely. We prioritize eco-friendly practices, sustainable tourism, and support local communities to ensure long-term conservation of wildlife and habitats.
How does Rubaba Safaris & Tours support women in tourism?
As a women-owned safari company, we hire and train women guides, empower young Tanzanian professionals, and provide leadership opportunities in a traditionally male-dominated industry.
Can I request a women guide for my safari?
Yes! If you prefer, we can arrange for experienced women guides to accompany you during wildlife or cultural tours, adding a personal and empowering touch to your safari experience.
