What people love about touring Tanzania solo
Friendly and knowledgeable I had a fantastic time, we saw all the animals we wanted to upclose. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly, food was great. The lodging was on par with what you pay for.
Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire (with Materuni waterfalls, coffee tour) - 6 Days
It is a wonderful tour, very safe and perfectly organized. My guide was extremely experienced
Tanzania 7days safari
- 5-Days Tanzania Luxury Safari & Experience Materuni waterfall
This trip was a dream come true for us. We have been to Tanzania for Kilimanjaro and had waited for sometime to return for the safari experience. We are happy that we used Zara Tours again because they have done a spectacular job of hosting us and ensuring we got what we were looking for. I think Zara Tours takes a lot of time to train their staff on customer service, because they were very good. If I consider Mushi, he was the definition of an expert and motivated guide. The people we met at their hotels were all genuinely interested in serving us and making our experience special. I highly recommend Zara Tours.
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."
