Kenya/Tanzania Classic Safari - Number of travelers
Narrowing our trip selection to Kenya/Tanzania. Have previously traveled Tauck - small group. This one says limit of 30. For those who have been on this particular safari with Tauck, was 30 people too large a group?

No, you are split into vehicles that hold up to six people. I’ve never been on a Tauck safari that has a full complement of the max number of guests. May I suggest doing a google search, something like, what to expect on an East African safari, it might help to understand what to expect as well as past comments here.
We did the Classic with 30 people last September. Definitely not a problem. As British mentioned, you are in six person jeeps during all game drives. Tauck does a good job mixing drivers and guests so you get a different experience each day. For us, the plus of a slightly larger group are more opportunities to enjoy meals with different guests. Never felt we were waiting/wasting time as people assembled for a game drive or to move from spot to spot.
I was really lucky when I went to K & T when they opened travel to Africa after Covid, there were only 4 of us in the group, it felt like a private tour.
