Group Join Safaris in Tanzania .
Traveling solo or as a couple and looking to save on costs? Our Group Join Safaris are the most popular way to experience Tanzania’s world-class national parks without the higher price tag of a private trip. By sharing the vehicle and costs with fellow travelers, you get the same professional guiding and incredible wildlife sightings at a fraction of the cost.
These tours are designed to be social, fun, and reliable. We organize daily departures for the Northern Circuit, bringing together like-minded adventurers from all over the world. Whether you want a quick 2-day getaway or a deep 5-day dive into the Serengeti, we have a group for you.
How Group Join Safaris Work .
Our shared safaris follow a standardized itinerary to ensure smooth logistics for everyone involved:
- • Shared 4x4 Vehicle: You’ll travel in a customized safari Land Cruiser with a pop-up roof. We limit groups (usually 6-7 people) to ensure everyone has a window seat.
- • Fixed Departures: Most of our group tours depart from Arusha. We can help you arrange accommodation in Arusha for the night before you start.
- • Fixed Itineraries: To keep things organized for the group, the route and parks visited are pre-set. Standard routes include Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti.
- • Shared Accommodation: You can choose between shared camping or shared lodge options, depending on the group's specific itinerary.
Benefits of Joining a Group .
- • Cost Savings: Split the cost of the vehicle, fuel, and guide fees. It’s the most budget-friendly way to see the Big Five.
- • Meet New People: Perfect for solo travelers! You’ll share meals and stories with people from different cultures and backgrounds.
- • Professional Guiding: You get the same level of expertise as a private safari—knowledgeable, English-speaking guides focused on wildlife spotting.
- • Guaranteed Departures: We run these tours regularly, so you can plan your trip with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions .
Do I get a window seat?
Yes! We ensure that every traveler in our group join vehicles has access to a window seat for the best photography and wildlife viewing experience.
Is there an age limit?
Generally, group joins are best for adults and older children (12+). For families with younger kids, we recommend a private safari for more flexibility.
What happens if I'm solo?
You're the reason we run group joins! If you choose camping, you'll have your own tent. If you choose a lodge, you can pay a single supplement for a private room or we can try to pair you with another solo traveler of the same gender.
Can I customize the group itinerary?
No, group itineraries are fixed to accommodate the whole group. If you want to change the route or pacing, a private safari would be better suited for you.
