    Dave

    Asked on August 10th, 2023

    I am getting married in Dar Es Salaam in August 2025. We got engaged in Mdonya Old River camp and are looking to return and bring the family after the wedding. I was wondering if there were any group/honeymoon discounts available as there will be 10-12 people coming with us on safari.

    Price / Availability
    • Silver Sky TravelOperator•Written August 2023

      We have considered your request and we can offer you a discount of $200 on this group price. The price further come down if you opt to travel by road from Dar es salaam to Ruaha instead of flight.

      Dave

      Traveler•Written August 2023

      Can I have an idea as to the price if we travel by road? I am gathering as much information as possible so I can give my family a few options. Could I know price by road for 2 nights 3 days, and price by road for 3 nights 4 days?

    • Silver Sky TravelOperator•Written August 2023

      If you opt to travel by road, the cost for the group will be as below. 3 days/2 nights - US$11,840. 4 days/3 nights - US$17,470. Please note its 10 hours journey from Dar es salaam to Ruaha by mini coaster bus (25 passengers). I hope it won't affect your timetable.
