Embark on a thrilling solo adventure with Lion Track Safari Company and experience the magic of Tanzania’s vast wilderness. With its incredible wildlife, breathtaking landscapes, and welcoming safari camps, Tanzania is the perfect destination for independent travelers seeking both solitude and connection with nature.

Why Tanzania is Perfect for Solo Travelers

Tanzania offers exceptional opportunities for solo adventurers. Whether you prefer joining a group itinerary for a social experience or enjoying a more private, personalized journey, we provide options tailored to your needs.

Sharing a safari vehicle with other travelers helps reduce costs while allowing you to meet like-minded explorers, but if you prefer a fully private experience, we can arrange exclusive accommodations and game drives just for you.

Some safari lodges and camps in Tanzania charge a single supplement, which can vary between 30–50%.
