10 Day Safari
Think ten days is the sweet spot for African safari? Popular combinations include Tanzania's northern circuit (Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire), Kenya's Masai Mara and Amboseli, or Botswana's Okavango and Chobe. Ten days means proper wildlife viewing time, experiencing various ecosystems, enough game drives that you'll likely see the full spectrum of African wildlife doing their thing.

Reviews of 10 day Safari Tours
- Sri Lanka Deluxe Travels
We'd never done a guided tour like this before so were a little apprehensive, but our guide was there to meet us at the airport and enabled us to see so much in such a short space of time. Despite the cyclone which was hitting Sri Lanka during our visit our trip was really stress free and our lovely guide was very flexible which meant we were able to make some changes which kept us all safe. The tour operator were also very accommodating and enabled us to tailor our tour to suit. I'd have no hesitation in using them again.

Vish was a great guide and driver. Very safe and cared for everyone on the trip. I highly recommend his service, knowledge and expertise in the tourism industry in Sri Lanka.
- Eco Odyssey Of Sri Lanka
Wonderful 18 day classic and cultural tour with BH Lanka Tour with a couple of challenges (dengue fever and cyclone Ditwah) along the way. Nalin Dissanayake navigated all the challenges with us, making sure we were ok, he was very knowledgable and always ready to help out. Highly recommend both company and Nalin, we hope to be back in the future to see more sights. Thank you Sri Lanka 😀
What our customers ask about 10 Day Safari
What are the most popular destinations for 10-day safari tours?
The most visited spots include Tanzania's Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire National Park. In Kenya, you'll explore the Masai Mara, Amboseli National Park with its views of Kilimanjaro, and Lake Nakuru where pink flamingos dot the shoreline. A TourRadar traveler describes their Kenya experience: "We saw a lioness trying to catch a gazelle and a mother gazelle saving her baby from a jackal. We saw many animals lounging and crossing the road in front of us."
When is the best time to go on a 10-day safari?
For the best wildlife viewing, plan your trip between June and October during the dry season. The Serengeti migration peaks from July to September. You can expect daytime temperatures around 75°F (24°C) and nights around 50°F (10°C). Pack some warm layers - the Ngorongoro Crater gets quite chilly in the early mornings, sometimes dropping to 41°F (5°C).
What wildlife will I see during my safari?
You'll likely spot the "Big Five" - lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, and buffalo - plus countless other animals. During migration season, the Serengeti and Masai Mara fill with huge herds of wildebeest and zebras. One TourRadar traveler shares: "Musa was amazing at tracking - we managed to see over 70 lions, hundreds of elephants, thousands of zebras and wildebeest and many other different animals. The wildlife viewing exceeded all our expectations."
How long are the daily game drives?
You'll spend about 4-6 hours per day looking for wildlife, usually split between early morning and late afternoon when animals are most active. Morning drives start around 6:30 AM, and afternoon drives begin about 3:30 PM and go until sunset. Some places, like Mara Sopa Lodge, also offer night drives where you can spot nocturnal animals.
