1. Plan ahead

 
The key to a successful group trip in Tanzania is planning ahead. Start by choosing activities that everyone can agree on. You can choose from Mount Kilimanjaro, safari, beaches and day trips too. Once this is done, choose your tour operator and itinerary. Make sure to get input from everyone in the group to ensure that everyone has a say in what they want to do. 
 

2. Assign roles

 
Assigning roles to different members of the group can help ensure that everything runs smoothly. For example, you may want to appoint someone as the trip planner, someone as the photographer, and so on. This can help ensure that everyone has a specific responsibility and that everything goes as planned.
 

3. Choose the right accommodation

 
When traveling with a big group in Tanzania, it’s important to choose the right place to stay. Look for hotels or hostels that can accommodate large groups. This should be made easier if you choose a good tour operator. They can give you a few choices and you see what fits your budget and interest. 
 

4. Set a budget

 
Setting a budget is important when traveling with a big group. Make sure everyone is clear on the budget and what is expected. 
 

5. Communicate

 
Communication is key when traveling with a big group. Make sure everyone has access to a group messaging app, like WhatsApp, to stay in touch throughout the trip. This can help ensure that everyone is on the same page and that plans are communicated clearly.
