Safari cost estimator

Each line is a low to high range for your whole party, rounded to the nearest A$50 (A$100 above A$5,000). Flights and transfers come from published fares; park fees from the parks' own tariffs or reporting on them; accommodation from the rates on our published stay pages. Where those stays show park fees or light-aircraft transfers in their rates, we leave them out of the total; where they do not say, the line reads “may be included” and we confirm it for you. Where we could not find a reliable figure, we say “Ask us” rather than guess. Explore Africa plans itineraries; it does not book.

• Children are priced at the adult fare; some airlines discount children's seats, so yours may come in lower.
• Accommodation uses the lowest published rate at your level, per person per night sharing; a per-room rate counts as two sharing and per-villa rates are left out.
• Rates in other currencies are converted to AUD at the stored reference rate; Namibian dollars use the rand rate (they are pegged 1:1).
• Lodge rates may include meals, drinks and activities where their published basis says so; the lodge sets the final rate at booking.
• Children are priced at the adult rate; many lodges offer child discounts, and some set minimum ages.
• US dollars converted at A$1 = US$0.7040 (Reserve Bank of Australia, F11 exchange rates, 30 October 2026); rand at A$1 = R11.7238 (European Central Bank reference rate (via Frankfurter), 30 October 2026); Tanzanian shillings at A$1 = TZS 1856.2779 (Bank of Tanzania indicative rate (via Frankfurter), 30 October 2026); Botswana pula at A$1 = BWP 9.4751 (International Monetary Fund representative rate (via Frankfurter), 30 October 2026).
