It’s Time to Inspire Travel to Africa
5 Tips for Solo Travel in Africa
As part of your traveller journey, you can decide which memories to share. Whether through social media updates, curated photo albums, or personalised mementoes. Each shared moment becomes a testament to the beauty of travel, inspiring others to power through the obstacles and embark on their adventures to foster connections that transcend borders and boundaries.
With Go Touch Down Travel and Tours we offer Solo-Friendly-Rates. Solo travel allows you to explore Africa’s wild beauty and connect with yourself. Here’s how to make the most of your solo safari adventure with us:
Plan your itinerary thoughtfully
We create personalized itineraries tailored to solo travelers’ interests, ensuring smooth transitions and unique experiences, whether you prefer game drives, walking safaris, or cultural activities.
Understand single supplements
In general, all Safari accommodations typically factor in the costs of two guests sharing a room. However, for solo travellers, this often entails paying a single supplement, which can range from 25% to 75% of the per-person-sharing rate. This ends up with solo travelers paying more than couples or individuals who share a room when travelling together. At Go Touch Down we do not follow this trend – our solo rates average $30-$50 per night only, for your cabin/room.
Leverage seasonal advantages
Our tours depart every week. For fewer travelers on our micro-size tours, consider traveling during the shoulder or green season (November, January, February, May, and August) for unique wildlife sightings and lower rates. Fewer tourists mean a more personal and tranquil experience.
Prioritize safety and flexibility
For added peace of mind during your travels, take advantage of meet-and-greet services and 24/7 support to ensure your safety. Share your travel itinerary with loved ones, take precautions, and download WhatsApp to stay in touch with your family and loved ones while you’re away.
Embrace diverse activities
Feel empowered to choose between social group activities and private moments. Whether you seek solitude or companionship, solo safaris offer flexible options to cater to your preferences. Our tours provide ample opportunities for “private time.”
A solo safari in Africa is a journey of self-discovery and empowerment. Embrace the tranquility, disconnect from technology, and fully immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of nature.
