Frequently Asked Questions
  • There is a very good chance! Kenya’s Maasai Mara and Tanzania’s Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater are among the best places in Africa to spot the Big Five: lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhino. While sightings of leopards and rhinos can be more rare, our experienced guides maximize your chances by knowing where to go and when.

  • Pack lightweight, neutral-colored clothing, a warm layer for chilly mornings, a sun hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, insect repellent, binoculars, a camera, and comfortable walking shoes. Don’t forget a refillable water bottle, personal medications, and travel documents. Many lodges offer laundry services, so you can pack light.

  • Absolutely. Kenya and Tanzania are very welcoming to families, and many lodges and safari operators (like Breezy Tours and Travel) offer child-friendly accommodations, meals, and guides. Game drives are designed with safety in mind, and lodges often offer special educational activities for kids. We also provide child car seats, shorter drives, and flexible schedules for young travelers.

  • Yes, most international travelers need a visa to enter both countries. Kenya: Apply for an e-visa online at evisa.go.ke before arrival. Tanzania: You can apply online at eservices.immigration.go.tz or get a visa on arrival at major entry points. Always check the latest requirements based on your nationality before you travel.

  • The best time for safari in both Kenya and Tanzania is during the dry seasons — June to October and January to February. These months offer excellent wildlife viewing, especially the Great Migration in the Maasai Mara (Kenya) and Serengeti (Tanzania) between July and October. However, both countries are year-round destinations with different highlights in each season.
