Company
When you are having a group safari, you’re assured of company throughout your safari. I mean you’re not alone; you’re with other people so the safari is more enjoyed and long drives are more bearable because you are not alone. Also having company on a safari helps you not be home sick – usually safaris are in Africa where most people have not been before, so have others with you the safari helps you adjust and feel warm.
Shared fun and memories
The more the merrier is true when you safaring in a group. You have shared fun moments that eventually become shared memories. For example when you do activities like hiking, primate trekking, mountain climbing, cycling, game viewing, hot air balloon etc together the fun is off the charts; making the memories off the charts too.

Their morale support and cheering on actually helps you complete the very adventurous activities and conqueror your fears.
Fair bill
Group safaris always have a fair bill because the total cost of the safari is always shared among the group member. So you literally don’t spend a lot on a safari, compared to if you we going to safari alone.
Also groups get a lot of discounts on different services and products so being in a group will get you the best deals on some things, which wouldn’t easily happen when you are alone. The other thing is because you’re in a group you tend to share things so instead of buying some things you will share with others and hence you wouldn’t have to spend.

You always know that in case of danger or something happens to you, you have people with you who can help you, come to your rescue and even call for more help.
