How to Decide on the Right Safari For You
Obviously your two main constraints will be the time you can devote to your trip and your available budget. Assuming that you are travelling with a reliable company, you tend to get what you pay for. The main influences on the cost of the trip will be the number of people travelling together in one vehicle, the accommodation used and the miles covered. It's up to you to do the research to find out what kind of safari would best suit your interests, taking the constraints into account. Do plenty of research to find out what options are available. You can do riding safaris: horse or camel (or indeed elephant - for a price - in Zimbabwe). Are you interested in Birding? Butterflies? Botany? Culture and anthropology? There are specialist safaris for all of these and more. |
