Set your expectations.

You should clearly know what to expect from a birding safari. Make sure you list out the bird species or experiences that you are interested in. don’t lie to yourself-I mean be realistic to your needs. Make sure the list of expectations fully match your reasons for travel.

Once you come up with the birding expectations, start going through all the itineraries to see if there shall be a match between your expectations and the itineraries, I somewhat suspect that it is difficult to achieve a 100% match however try to be understanding and considerate, and go for an itinerary that has the greatest percentage of match.

Set your birding budget.

It is always easy for you to make all the suggestions without considering the price associated to each of them. As a matter of fact, you will have to pay for your tour unless you have been sponsored to do the safari. Always make sure that the itinerary tour price that you intend to choose does not go beyond the amount of money you are willing to spend. The two aspects should somewhat match.

If you think that you still don’t have enough money but you have spotted a very nice itinerary you would like to choose, don’t panic. I highly recommend that you postpone your tour such that you can save some money for your safari. At the end of the day, you should feel happy that you are doing something that you liked not being dictated by price. Save and go for the itinerary that better represents your travel goals.

Plan for your travel date

Many people are busy and those are the very people that normally want to travel, it is highly possible to travel even if you have a busy schedule. Most tourists use their company leave days to travel if you have a leave for about 2 weeks, make sure you go for an itinerary that is utmost 1 week just to give you enough time to relax and get prepared to go back to work.

Your itinerary you choose should reflect the number of days you want to spend on your travel. And as a matter of fact, if you think that you enjoyed, you can always extend your stay by adding more days to your tour as long as you have enough money.

Think about accommodation

Make sure the itinerary shall give you options to visit the stay in the best places you may wish.
