PRICING:
The pricing of a safari with CAA will vary depending on group size and itinerary. A safari with only a single client will obviously be priced the highest, usually ranging from $250 to $500 per day. For groups of four or more the prices range from $150 to $325 per day. Groups of two and three will fall between $200 and $375 per day. Safaris that involve mostly hiking or backpacking will tend to be the least expensive, while game viewing safaris will be higher. Also, the type of accommodations you require will effect the price. Costs will be higher for those staying and dining at lodges than for those tenting and having basic camp meals. These prices will increase for those wishing to fly to and from game parks as opposed to riding in safari vans or Land Cruisers. The price will include all lodging, meals, and transportation while in East Africa. Not included: air fare to and from Nairobi, alcohol and other cold drinks, tips for camp staff and porters.
