Frequently asked questions

Good things to know before you go.

When is the best time to visit Tanzania?

The dry season from June to October offers the best wildlife viewing. The Great Migration river crossings usually peak from July to September, while January to February is calving season in the southern Serengeti.

How much does a safari cost?

Every journey is tailor-made, so cost depends on the season, accommodation style and group size. Share your dates and preferences with us and we will prepare a transparent quote with no hidden fees.

Is Tanzania safe to visit?

Yes. Tanzania is one of East Africa's most stable destinations. You will travel with experienced local guides and stay in well-run lodges and camps throughout your journey.

Do I need a visa for Tanzania?

Most visitors do. Visas are available online in advance or on arrival at major entry points, and we will guide you through the exact requirements for your nationality.

Can you customize my itinerary?

Absolutely. Every Gedesa journey is built around your pace, interests and budget — nothing is a fixed package.
