Safari planning
How many safari days should I plan?
Five to seven days works well for Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro without making every day feel rushed.
Kilimanjaro
Which route should I choose?
Machame is scenic, Lemosho gives more acclimatization, Rongai approaches from the north, and Marangu uses huts.
Do I need insurance?
Yes. Kilimanjaro travelers should carry insurance that covers high-altitude trekking and emergency evacuation.
Zanzibar
Can safari and Zanzibar be combined?
Yes. Many travelers do safari or Kilimanjaro first, then fly to Zanzibar for three to five days.
