What people love about touring Tanzania solo
- Simba Classic Adventure Safari **Sustainable Approach to Travel
My family is absolutely grateful to Patrick our Reservations Specialist for helping us create an amazing itinerary and Shabaan our guide for a phenomenal safari experience in the parks. Shabaan is an excellent driver who handled the Landcruiser very well even in tricky situations, but even a better guide with the eyes of a hawk able to spot wildlife where we could not. Being with him was fun and awesome, he shared experiences from his past trips, habits of the animals we encountered including birds and culture of the local communities we visited. We were able to experience the amazing beauty of Tanzania thanks to Shabaan. I recommend
- PRIVATE Wildebeest Calving Safari, Tanzania, January to March **Sustainable Approach to Travel
We had the most incredible time visiting four parks last month with Musa. He was always on time and ensured that the vehicle was clean and well stocked with water, snacks, binoculars.... His expertise and knowledge about the parks. He was flexible, patient and mindful of the animals' welfare driving carefully not to spook the animals when we encountered them. He taught us so much about the animals, birds and culture. We believe that the work done by our travel expert Patrick prior to the trip made trip flawless, he booked us in amazing lodges, and booked all the activities that made our safari unforgettable. Thank you all for a great time
- 10 Days Tanzania Great Wildebeest Migration Mara River cross Safari.
We spent 10 remarkable days with Vincent, our safari guide and tour driver. He planned our schedule to perfection, allowing us to see a variety of exotic animals in the wild. Vincent knew the finest spots and times to observe the animals all throughout Tanzania (Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti National Park). Vincent always provided a qualified response to all of our questions, we had a picnic hot lunch inside the pack and felt save. We strongly recommend Hazzes Adventure for your next African safari experience. All the best, Erika.
What our customers ask about Tanzania Tours for Solo Travelers
What's the typical group size for Tanzania tours suitable for solo travelers?
Tanzania tours keep groups small and manageable usually between 6 to 12 people. The Northern Circuit safari tours maintain a strict limit of 6 travelers per vehicle which gives everyone a clear view of wildlife. For those interested in climbing Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho Route groups usually include 8 to 10 climbers plus guides and porters. This size makes it easy to get to know your fellow travelers.
How experienced are the guides with solo travelers?
Tour guides in Tanzania come with extensive training in managing group dynamics and working with solo travelers. They're fluent in several languages including English German French and Spanish. A TourRadar traveler shared: "Our guide Maxwell turned our safari into an exciting odyssey through Tarangire Serengeti parks and Ngorongoro Crater. He was knowledgeable about all the animals and helped us communicate with the Maasai people."
What are the typical costs of single supplements on Tanzania safari tours?
Single room charges in Tanzania cost between 200 to 400 USD varying by accommodation quality. Some places like Serena Safari Lodge and Kibo Palace Hotel have rooms designed for solo guests. Several operators including Almighty Kilimanjaro don't charge extra for single tents. As one traveler noted on TourRadar: "I had my own spacious tent throughout the trek with no additional charges."
How are meal arrangements handled for solo travelers?
Group dining is standard practice in Tanzania creating natural opportunities to meet other travelers. At Millennium Camp on Kilimanjaro everyone eats together in a shared tent while places like Lake Burunge Tented Lodge set up group dining experiences. The kitchens adapt well to different dietary needs. One TourRadar review noted "the cook prepared excellent vegetarian options throughout the trek."
Which areas of Tanzania are most welcoming for solo travelers?
Tanzania's Northern Circuit especially around Arusha and Moshi offers a welcoming environment for solo travelers. Places like Serengeti Wild Camps and Highview Hotel in Karatu feature social spaces where travelers naturally gather. A TourRadar guest noted: "The staff at the camps/lodges was exceptional. They treated us like royalty attending to our every need." The village of Mto wa Mbu gives visitors chances to connect with locals through activities like banana beer tasting and cooking classes.
What kind of accommodations can solo travelers expect on Tanzania tours?
The best times to visit are June through October and December through March. During these months the weather suits outdoor activities and wildlife viewing is at its peak in places like the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. These busy seasons bring more travelers making social connections easier. A TourRadar visitor who went in July shared: "The weather was perfect while we were there and we saw all the Big 5 plus incredible migration scenes."
