Departure: The Tanzania Wildlife Breakaway departs from the African Tulip Hotel in Arusha.
When arriving in Arusha on day one, you will be picked up from the airport and transferred to your lodge.
Should you arrive prior to day one, pre-tour accommodation can be arranged, and you will be picked up from your hotel on the morning of day one.
After breakfast on day 2, there will be a pre-departure meeting presented by your guide at your accommodation. It is imperative that all clients attend this meeting so as not to miss out on any critical information.
Whilst it is our every intention to adhere to the above-mentioned itinerary, there may occasionally be a need to make alterations in order to make the tour more enjoyable or practical. Therefore, please treat the itinerary as a guide only.
Transport: There is the use of fully equipped, customized 4x4 safari vehicles, Toyota Land Cruisers, or other appropriate vehicles with comfortable seating, all window seats for game viewing, and a music system.
These non-air-conditioned vehicles are equipped with pop-up roofs to facilitate the best game viewing.
All luggage, besides hand luggage and photo equipment, is carried on the vehicle roof rack or trailer to ensure maximum comfort in the vehicle.
Travelling times and distances: All travelling times are affected by road conditions, detours, and weather conditions. Therefore, on certain days, travelling times may be longer than anticipated, especially where there is a lot of distance to be covered.
Please keep in mind that the time it takes to travel 100 km in your home country is not equivalent to the time it takes to travel 100 km on African roads. Therefore, we encourage you to sit back and enjoy the spectacular scenery Africa has to offer.
Where possible, additional stops will be made to ensure your travelling comfort at all times.
Accommodation: For this accommodated safari, we make use of mid-range lodge accommodation.
Your accommodation is situated either in National Parks, on the banks of a river, or in other places of interest.
The accommodation will be a mix of lodges, chalets, and permanent tented chalets with en-suite facilities.
Some properties are equipped with swimming pools and/or bar areas.
Meals: Breakfast and dinner will be prepared by the lodge where you are staying. They will also prepare lunch or a lunch pack depending on the itinerary for the day.
Please advise us of any special dietary requirements in advance.
Tipping guidelines for guides: It is recommended that you tip between $5 - $10 per person per day.
Visas: The onus is on the client to organize all visas required to visit Tanzania before departure.
Travel insurance: Please note that travel and cancellation insurance is mandatory for every guest travelling with us. All insurance is solely the responsibility of our guests.
Please ensure you arrange your own insurance with protection for the full duration of your journey to cover personal injury, damage, and loss of personal items including, but not limited to, camera equipment and other electronic items, medical expenses, repatriation expenses, and loss of luggage.
Please speak to your travel agent if you require assistance.
