Your Step-by-Step Roadmap: How Seniors Go From “Maybe One Day” to “I Just Booked Safari to Tanzania Dec 24, 2025

By now, you might feel this:

“I would love to do this.
I just don’t know where to start.”

Let’s make it simple and calm.
Here is your roadmap.

Step 1: Choose Your Window

Look at your calendar and ask:

• Which month in the next 12-18 months could work?
• Do I prefer cooler, drier weather (often May-November) or greener landscapes and fewer crowds?

Circle a month, not exact dates yet. That’s enough to begin.

Step 2: Decide How Long You Can Be Away

Most seniors enjoy:

• 7-10 nights in Tanzania
• Plus travel time

If you’re nervous, start with 7 nights.
If you have more energy, consider 10-12 nights with rest days.

Write your maximum number of days:

“I can be away for nights.”

Step 3: Write Down Your Limits and Wishes

On one sheet, write:

• Any walking or health limits
• Your must-haves (private bathroom, certain level of comfort)
• Your fears (long drives, small planes, etc.)
• Your wishes (see the Serengeti, visit a Maasai village, maybe add Zanzibar beach, etc.)

This becomes your senior safari checklist.

Step 4: Share It with EXG Safaris

Send us:

• Your age(s)
• Your month window
• Your nights
• Your checklist

We’ll reply with a clear, simple itinerary:

• Day-by-day outline
• Names of parks and lodges
• Approximate drive times
• What’s included and what’s not
• Price range

You don’t need to say yes yet. Just breathe and imagine yourself inside that story.

Step 5: Adjust Until It Feels Right

We expect questions. We welcome changes.

We can:

• Add more rest time
• Change a lodge
• Adjust the order of parks
• Add or remove a beach extension

When you read the final version and feel a quiet inner “Yes”, you’re ready.

Step 6: Confirm and Prepare at a Gentle Pace

Once you decide:

• You confirm with a deposit
• We lock in bookings
• We give you a clear preparation guide (doctor visit, packing, visas, tips)

You have months to get ready physically and emotionally.

Step 7: Fly, Land, and Let Tanzania Take Over

You step out of the plane.
You see a friendly face holding your name.
You hear, “Karibu. Welcome.”

In that moment, your safari stops being a dream and becomes your life.

You didn’t rush.
You didn’t ignore your worries.
You walked through each step with care and still chose adventure.
