Some of the things to consider when comparing the price of a luxury safari company are:
Inclusions
Inclusions are the items and services that are included in the price of the safari. Inclusions can vary depending on the safari company, the destination, and the itinerary. Some of the common inclusions are accommodation, transportation, meals, drinks, guides, park fees, and activities. Some of the optional or extra inclusions are flights, visas, insurance, tips, laundry, souvenirs, and special experiences. You should always check what is included and what is not included in the price of the safari, and compare the value and quality of the inclusions among different safari companies.
Exclusions
Exclusions are the items and services that are not included in the price of the safari. Exclusions can also vary depending on the safari company, the destination, and the itinerary. Some of the common exclusions are flights, visas, insurance, tips, laundry, souvenirs, and special experiences. Some of the hidden or unexpected exclusions are taxes, surcharges, transfers, and extras. You should always be aware of what is excluded and what is not excluded in the price of the safari, and avoid any unpleasant surprises or additional costs during or after your trip.
Value
Value is the ratio of quality to price, or the benefit that you get for the money that you pay. Value can be subjective and relative, depending on your preferences, expectations, and satisfaction. Value can also be influenced by factors such as season, demand, availability, and competition. You should always look for the best value for your money, rather than the cheapest or the most expensive price. You should also consider the long-term value of your safari, such as the memories, the learning, and the impact that you make or receive.
Sustainability
Sustainability is another important factor to consider when choosing a luxury safari company. Sustainability refers to the environmental, social, and economic impact of the safari company on the destination and the people. Sustainability can affect the quality and the future of the safari, as well as your responsibility and contribution as a traveler.
