In 2026, the cost of a 10-day Kenya safari can vary wildly depending on the level of luxury, but the "average" mid-range experience typically costs between $4,500 and $7,500 per person (excluding international flights). For a Budget Safari (staying in public campsites or basic lodges), you can expect to pay around $2,500 to $3,500. A Mid-Range Safari (staying in comfortable tented camps with en-suite bathrooms) usually falls in the $450 to $700 per day range. If you are looking for a Luxury Safari (private conservancies, boutique lodges, and light-aircraft transfers), prices start at $1,000 per day and can easily exceed $15,000 for a 10-day trip. A significant portion of this cost—roughly 30%—is now driven by increased park fees; as of 2026, entry to the Masai Mara costs $200 per adult per day in the high season. The total price usually includes all local transport in a 4x4 vehicle, a professional guide, all meals, and park entry fees. Travelers should also budget an additional $200 to $400 for tipping guides and camp staff, which is a standard and highly expected practice in the Kenyan hospitality industry.
