2. Determine Your Dates of Travel
Best Time of Year: Check when the best time of years for viewing wildlife is in the area you have selected. Most parks have peak seasons since animals migrate at certain times.
Length: For how many days would you like your safari to be? Safaris take anything from a few days up to many weeks.
3. Set a Budget
Costs: Estimate for accommodation, entrance fees for parks, guides, meals, and transport. Safaris range from budget to luxury.
