Looking for special offers and deals can help you find a good safari package without breaking the bank. Many people still not believe the fact that booking ready-made safari packages might save them money. So they book the hotels, car rental and flights separately and then grumble about the high cost of everything. You can save a lot of money by booking safari packages, rather than separate travel services. Of course, this advise is not relevant to individuals seeking private and tailored trips. But for those who do not mind traveling in groups – big or small, this is one way of getting special prices on safari trips.
When going on vacation, there are many things that you end up spending money on. It is much easier to book an all inclusive vacation instead of paying for everything separately. Many safari operators offer deals that include airfare, a hotel stay and meals. Do some checking around to see what is available.
The key is to book a safari vacation that will be the perfect balance between having a good time and spending a reasonable amount of money.

Special Offers During The Off Peak Safari Season
One of the ways to get a great safari experience on very special rates is to travel during the low season. During the low season, many hotels, safari lodges and camps offer generous discounts for the services. This however assumes that you are flexible enough with regard to your dates of travel.
During the low season in East Africa you can find excellent rates for the private lodges that stay open during the rains. This gives you to the chance get a top notch safari at a fraction of the high season cost. If wildlife is your priority and your budget sits toward the modest end of the scale, taking the low season safari in East Africa would be a brilliant solution.
In East Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Rwanda), the low season is generally between April and June. This time tends to coincide with the rains. Because most people find this kind of weather less appealing for safari, they shy away from traveling during the low season. To appeal to more people to visit the parks, the safari lodges and camps that stay open during the low season will craft and send out special offers.
In South Africa, the low safari season is generally from start of May and runs till end of September. This is during the winter weather conditions. It is important to note that during this period, Kruger Park and many of the game reserves remain dry, without rains. This makes this period an ideal time for safaris in South Africa – for a good price. For Kruger and Madikwe, May to September is the dry season. At this time of year, the bush is not as green and lush, making for much better game viewing, and, as it’s dry season, the animals are more reliant on waterholes and rivers.
For most Safari destinations, our published prices remain valid for the whole year. However, during the low season one may get discounts as high as 40% on some of our safaris. We therefore encourage clients who want fewer crowds to take this advantage.
