Experience & Safaris
No set itineraries, no catalogue. If this philosophy resonates, we'll create the best-suited safari together, shaped by the season, the duration, and most importantly, your interests.
Wildlife
More than two million wildebeest, gazelle, zebra and eland migrate through the Serengeti every year, and yet this just scratches the surface: the big five, endangered wild dog, roughly 1,140 bird species and 20 primates.
Walking
Thirty-plus years ago, one thing we all agreed on was that visitors deserved the chance to walk: to experience nature on foot and away from vehicles. Our walks are for those who like the private intimacy of wilderness, from insect tracks in the sand to an unsuspecting animal coming down to drink.
Culture
Built on decades of shared history and mutual trust, our deep relationships with local communities allow for un-staged, socially responsible cultural encounters across Tanzania's 120+ ethnic groups.
Intimate & Exclusive
Every safari is tailor-made: private vehicles, private fly camps, small groups, and long-standing community relationships that open doors no booking platform can.
Professional Guides
After four decades, we believe we have some of the best guides in the business. Read the letters our guests send home and a pattern emerges: it is the guides they remember by name. Our guides decide when to drive, when to walk, and when to sit still and let the bush come to you.
Adventure
Multi-day treks along remote stretches of the Great Ruaha River, mountain biking, rock climbing and canoeing down the rapids of the Ruhuhu river that flows into lake Nyasa.
Active & Engaged
A Dorobo safari asks something of you, and gives more back because of it. Sometimes it is better to walk rather than drive. Learn to read tracks, make an arrow, bead with hadza women, paddle a quiet stretch of coast.
Coastal
Tanzania offers a vast array of beaches along the mainland and several larger Islands. Being by the equator one gets some of the best snorkeling and diving in the world with rich and diverse reef systems. The coast is full of Swahili Arab culture that is still rich and vibrant with a lot of history one can learn about.
Starting points, not set packages. Tanzania reads differently depending on when you go; browse a season below, then use its sample itineraries as a sketch and we'll draw the rest together.
As the landscape fades to brown, the Great Migration moves north through the central Serengeti and into the northern reaches, braving the dramatic Grumeti and Mara River crossings. Shrinking water sources force wildlife to concentrate around permanent rivers, delivering unmatched game viewing.
While popular routes become busy with tourists during this peak travel window, it is the ideal time to incorporate our exclusive, active walking safaris to escape the crowds.
Despite popular belief, the Green Season is an extraordinary time to visit Tanzania. Rains transform the sun-baked earth into a lush green landscape in just days, drawing returning migratory birds to the vibrant growth. During this time, the Great Migration pours into the short-grass plains of the Southern Serengeti and Ngorongoro regions.
Explore our sample itineraries to experience the very best of Northern Tanzania during this magical season.
