## Frequently asked questions

### What wildlife can I expect to see on this 10-day Kenya and Tanzania safari?
This itinerary gives you strong chances of seeing elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, hippos, many antelope species and abundant birdlife. Lake Nakuru is especially good for rhino viewing, while the Masai Mara and Serengeti are excellent for big cats and seasonal wildebeest herds.

### When is the best time to do the Kenya and Tanzania Two Nations Safari?
The safari runs well year-round, but the dry seasons from June to October and January to February usually offer the easiest wildlife viewing. July to October is the key Great Migration season in the Masai Mara, while elephant sightings in Amboseli and Tarangire are excellent during dry months.

### How much does a 10-day Kenya and Tanzania safari cost?
The cost depends on travel dates, accommodation level, group size, park fees and whether you choose a private or shared safari. Cross-border itineraries are typically higher than single-country safaris because they include multiple premium parks, border logistics and longer driving distances.

### Is this safari suitable for first-time safari travellers?
Yes, this itinerary is ideal for first-time travellers because it combines East Africa’s most famous safari areas in one well-balanced route. You get rhinos in Lake Nakuru, big cats in the Masai Mara and Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater wildlife, Tarangire elephants and Amboseli’s Kilimanjaro views.

### What is usually included in this 10-day Kenya and Tanzania safari package?
A typical Imara Africa Safaris package includes safari transport, professional guiding, park entry fees, accommodation, game drives and most meals as shown in the final itinerary. International flights, visas, travel insurance, drinks, tips and optional activities are usually excluded unless stated.

### How long are the drives between parks on this itinerary?
This is a busy cross-border safari with several long transfer days, especially between the Masai Mara and Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire, and back towards Kenya. The route is designed to maximise wildlife viewing across both countries, so travellers should be comfortable with road travel and early starts.

### Is the 10-day Kenya and Tanzania safari family-friendly?
Yes, the safari can work well for families, especially with a private vehicle and carefully selected lodges or camps. Families with younger children should consider driving distances, early morning game drives and border-crossing days when planning the pace of the trip.
