Every tourist yearns for the perfect safari holiday. They want reliable and experienced tour guides, comfortable accommodation, most affordable flight bookings and so on. These are perfectly realistic things to desire. After all, a holiday is supposed to be full of fun and fantastic experiences. The simplest way to get the best out of your holiday is to book in advance.
Surveys have shown that early planning can determine the quality of your holiday experience, especially in 2019. Booking early not only helps tourists save a lot of money, but it also helps them get the best accommodation and flights before they are completely reserved. Gone are the days when travel stakeholders offered last-minute bargains. The travel industry has changed over the years with travel companies taking advantage of the more fluid business arena.
Moreover, safari companies often reserve their best drivers, finest vehicles and best resources for tourists who book in advance. There is a lot to gain from making early reservations, especially in 2019 when economic experts have predicted that there will be fluctuations in the exchange rates and inflation-induced price hikes.
We want you to have a fantastic holiday and that’s why we have come up with a list of the best five reasons to book your safari holiday in advance.
1. Plenty of Time To Save
In the travel industry, booking early is the way to go,
Tourists who understand this often make reservations in advance, particularly during peak seasons. It is advantageous to get a good idea of how much you need to save up. Having more time to pay for a holiday package helps to relieve tourists of stress and pressure.
And who knows? You might save up much more than you had envisaged. With a decent holiday budget, you can include more luxury safari options such as balloon safari, visiting Maasai Village or Olduvai Gorge among some of the optional activities that can be integrated into your safari holiday itinerary.
2. Something to look forward to
One of the highlights of booking early is the endless dreaming. And believe me, a safari is worth looking forward to. In fact, your mind is capable of entering holiday mode long before you arrive at your destination. Book in advance, if you want to enjoy counting down and imagining every single game-viewing, bush trekking, mountain hiking on Kilimanjaro or moonlit dinner experience. It makes the trip more exciting. Again, time flies when you have something exciting to look forward to.
3. Sufficient Time For Research
Most safari holiday packages come already planned. Travel companies outline the events and activities for each day. All the tourist has to do is to choose a package most suited to their needs. This might require a bit of research on his/her part but the itineraries set out by leading safaris companies like Bushbuck Safaris require little effort for the tourists as we have planned it all for you – all that you need to do is book your flights.
If for instance, you’re a wildlife photographer or a filmmaker, you will need to research so as to schedule your safari holiday for the appropriate seasons. You probably want to get photo-shoots of wildlife migrations or bio-luminescent sea creatures. Without proper research, you run the risk of being heartbroken because you just missed the latest wildebeest migration by days.
If you want to make the most of your safari holiday, plan early.
4. A Wider Range Of Safari Holiday Options
Don’t make the mistake of delaying your safari holiday bookings until the summer when most Westerners choose to go on vacation, The forces of demand and supply are bound to influence the prices of accommodation, flights and other travel resources.
In 2019, the travel market is bound to be more fluid. Travel companies and hotels are likely to be fully booked by peak period. This means that last-minute holiday planners will have fewer accommodation options and safari packages to choose from. If you’d like to get luxury accommodation at reasonable prices, book earlier. If you’d like to do the same safari at a fraction of the peak rate, then you should definitely start planning and booking as early as you can.
5. A Chance to Grab Deals and Offers
Most safari companies occasionally offer early booking deals for safaris. You can get affordable flights, luxury accommodation, transfers and/or reasonably-priced package deals. Of course, these deals might require you to make spontaneous trips. But when you look at it closely, you’ll realize that there is an upside to it. You could travel to an entirely new location and enjoy a completely different experience.
Sometimes though, new safari packages come at discounted rates. Some offer free holidays for children. To get affordable rooms and transfer upgrades, consider planning and booking as soon as the prices are low or affordable.
Conclusion
Although booking in advance rocks, the world is filled with tourists who can’t help last-minute rushes. If you have procrastinated until the last minute, don’t fret. You could get lucky. If you are still trying to make up your mind, take our word for it. Booking early saves you plenty of money, time and headaches. Book your safari holiday in advance in 2019. By booking your luxury safari in Tanzania early, you will get quality and low prices so do not leave it too late if you want the best of both!
