Tanzania is a dream destination for many travelers worldwide, with its stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife, and rich culture. However, planning a safari in Tanzania can often come with a hefty price tag. But fear not, there are ways to experience this incredible country without breaking the bank.
Tanzania safari peak season is from June to October, when the weather is dry and the wildlife is most active. However, this also means that prices are at their highest. Consider traveling during the low season, from March to May, when prices are significantly lower and the crowds are smaller. You may have to deal with some rain, but the landscapes are lush and green, and the wildlife is still abundant

Some campsites even have basic facilities like showers and toilets.
The Serengeti National Park is one of the most popular destinations for safaris in Tanzania, but it also comes with a high price tag. Consider visiting other national parks and reserves, such as Tarangire National Park or Lake Manyara National Park. These parks offer similar wildlife viewing opportunities at a fraction of the cost. You can also opt for a walking safari or a cultural tour, which are often more affordable Tanzania safari options
