Group Safari in Tanzania:
Private Groups & Small Group Departures

Travel to Tanzania your way: in a private group with your family, friends, association or company, or by joining a small group departure with like-minded travellers sharing the same passion for Africa.

Travelling together

A safari designed
for your whole group

Organising a group safari means balancing different expectations, varying energy levels and logistics that demand careful coordination. Safari & Wellness Africa takes care of everything: accommodation suited to your group size, dedicated vehicles, and a balanced programme of safari, beach and cultural discovery.

Whether you are 6 friends, a family of 15 or an association of 40, we build an itinerary that works for everyone. A Zanzibar extension before or after the safari is always possible.

Groups of friends, extended families, associations, alumni, companies or wellness groups — whatever your group looks like, we build a trip that fits it.

Private group safari in Tanzania — jeeps and savanna
Two ways to travel

Private Group or
Small Group Departure

Depending on your situation, budget and preferences, we offer two different approaches — both deliver a complete safari experience in Tanzania.

Established group

Private Group

You travel with people you already know: extended family, friends, an association, alumni, a fraternity, a company or a partner agency. The programme, dates, pace and accommodation are entirely tailored to your established group.

  • Dates, pace and activities to suit you
  • Vehicle(s) and guides reserved exclusively for you
  • Accommodation suited to your group size
  • Tailor-made cultural, safari or wellness programme
  • Ideal from 4 people upwards

Scheduled dates

Small Group Departure

You are travelling solo, as a couple or as a pair, and want to join an already-organised small group. Dates and the itinerary are set in advance. This lets you share the experience with other travellers who have the same passion for Africa, while reducing certain costs.

  • Dates and itinerary set in advance
  • Ideal for solo travellers or small pairs
  • Shared logistics costs
  • 4 to 8 travellers maximum per departure
  • Support in your requested language, subject to availability

FAQ

Group safari — your questions,
our answers

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

Private groups typically start from 4 people and can extend to 40 or more (families, associations, alumni or corporate groups). Small group departures usually welcome 4 to 8 travellers, to keep the experience personal and comfortable in the vehicles.

What is the difference between a private group and a small group departure?

A private group travels only with people you already know, with dates, pace and itinerary built entirely around your group. A small group departure has dates and an itinerary set in advance, and you join other travellers who share the same passion for Africa — ideal if you are travelling solo or as a couple and want to share the experience.

Can a group with different ages and interests travel together?

Yes. We design a balanced programme with flexible days, optional activities and a pace that works for children, grandparents and everyone in between, so the trip stays enjoyable for the whole group.

How do you handle vehicles and logistics for larger groups?

We organise dedicated 4x4 safari vehicles and experienced local guides sized to your group, and coordinate every transfer between the airport, lodges, parks and Zanzibar so no one has to manage the logistics themselves.

Do you organise trips for companies and associations?

Yes, we regularly organise trips for companies, associations, alumni networks and fraternities. Each programme is tailor-made to the group's objectives, with a transparent quote adapted to the number of participants.
