WHY IS MY SAFARI MORE EXPENSIVE WITH LESS PEOPLE IN THE GROUP?

Safaris are a mixture of fixed costs for the tour company (JAfrica)  ie staff, vehicle, food, and external costs which come in the shape of accommodation and park fees etc.

When pricing a safari we divide our fixed cost by the number of people in the safari truck to work out a cost per PAX, then we add on the accomodation and park fees.

This means that the fixed costs are shared by the people travelling, so the more people in the group, the less the individual is required to pay. If you have any quieries regarding this or anything else about your safari trip to Africa please feel free to contact us.

Please call or email for child pricing, depending on the numbers in your group we can negotiate better room rates with the lodges.

  So happy to hear Joshua has his own safari company now. Known him from when he was our guide with another outfitter. He really made the trip. ... read more I am from Africa and thought I knew it all since I have been on many safaris. Joshua is thoughtful and attentive, a skilled spotter and knows the area extremely well. He even helped some of the other guides who got lost from time to time. Joshua is respectful of his environment but still manages to bring one very close to the animals without disturbing them. Amazing how one can pick up on the behaviour of animals when one can get that close to sit and observe. I'll go on a safari with Josh anytime.
