​Dorobo Safaris Legacy of Cultural Engagement and Conservation Initiatives

Dorobo Safaris was started in the early-1980′s, in the early days of the development of Tanzanian ecotourism. Then, as now, Dorobo focused on developing unique and personal experiences ‘off the beaten track’ involving local cultures, ecosystems, and wilderness areas. Even at this time it was clear that numerous threats from expanding human populations and economic activities, such as agriculture and charcoal burning, posed a threat to sustainable livelihoods and to conservation of northern Tanzania’s extraordinary biodiversity and wildlife. By 1991, Dorobo Safaris had worked to initiate the first joint venture agreements with local Maasai villages providing payment in exchange for access to village lands for tourism. These involved the villages setting aside large concession areas where agriculture and charcoal burning were prohibited, but other activities such as seasonal livestock grazing could continue.
