Costs, Permits, and Logistics

Confirm current fees when you book — tariffs are set by national park authorities and can change by season or residency status.

• Serengeti and Ngorongoro fees are charged per 24 hours; crater descent has an additional vehicle fee.
• Dry season (June–October) is peak for migration viewing and lodge demand.
• Gorilla trekking minimum age is 15 in Uganda and Rwanda; chimps in Kibale from age 12.
• Family rooms and private vehicles simplify pacing on mixed-ability itineraries.
• Build routes to reduce backtracking — primate parks, savanna parks, and flights should align by sector.
• Buffer days after gorilla treks help if hikes run long or weather delays bush flights.

Sample Itinerary Shape

Most travellers anchor the trip around one flagship experience (gorilla trek, migration, or Big Five loop), then add supporting nights for chimps, boat safaris, or cultural stops. Avoid stacking long drives on the same day as a primate trek.
