Is it necessary to use a travel tour operator while planning trip to Africa?

I stay at Kolkata and have been to Africa many times with my family and friends. And finally I came to a conclusion that you do not require the services of tour operators in Kolkata for every trip to Africa. Like when I went to Marrakech, all I had to do was to book flights and check into a good Riad for staying. The same was the case when I planned a family vacation to Cape Town. But I have also booked some awesome trips with the help of tour operators in Kolkata. So here I list the scenarios in which according to me you must seek the help of a specialized travel tour operator, if you really want to enjoy. 


  • A safari trip: Believe me; it’s almost impossible to plan an African safari on your own. So better not to make the mistake. There are virtually countless destinations and safaris to choose from and the entire process can be real overwhelming for you. So it is better to seek the advice of a professional who knows which safari and destination will cater best to your interests and needs.
  • Multiple country visits: Now we all know that Africa is a huge continent and travelling from Country A to Country B can be quite complicated, especially if you aren’t aware with the right kind of transport options. Plus lots of paperwork also might be involved. So it is better to save yourself from all the trouble by hiring professionals for tackling the entire task.
  • Travelling with people that have special needs: I think you must seek the help of professional tour planners in case you are travelling with old people or children, diabetic, pregnant, vegetarian or have special desire to have a look at certain specific animals or to know more about the country’s people, music, and art.
