Safaris in Tanzania I Dream of Africa Safaris

Close to Nature

Experience Tanzania’s wildlife like never before by staying inside the National Parks, where the sounds and animals of the savannah surround you day and night (safely, of course).

Close to Community

As a small, family-owned company, our entire team is made up of native Tanzanians, all committed to uplifting their extended families and villages.

Close to Culture

Close to Conservation

Travel sustainably, knowing your safari helps preserve Tanzania’s wildlife and natural beauty for future generations.

Close to Traditions

We love and respect the diverse traditions of Tanzania. If you wish, we are thrilled to take you on cultural experiences, like visiting a traditional Masai village.

Close to Professionals

From the moment you land in Tanzania, it is our pleasure to take care of you. We greet all our guests at the airport with a big smile, ready to start the adventure, and drop them off for their next.

About Us

My Home Village

I was born and raised in the village Momella in the Arusha National Park at the foot of Mount Meru.

As a young boy, I walked through the Arusha area that I now tour daily.

Creating Unforgettable Adventures

Our goal is to give you an authentic African bush experience—not just by chasing the Big 5, but by taking time to appreciate the Little 5 and everything in between. They’re just as fascinating and exciting to observe!

One thing we're proud of, is that every guest leaves Tanzania with unforgettable memories to cherish forever.

Dietary restrictions we accomodate on safari

Food is a big part of a vacation and we ensure our gusts have plenty of delicious options to accomodate many different dietary preferances including:

Vegetarian And Vegan

Tanzanian food is a celebration of fresh, wholesome ingredients—many of which are naturally vegetarian. From hearty bean stews and slow-cooked pulses to vibrant vegetable curries, fresh salads, and comforting soups, Tanzanian cuisine offers rich flavors without the need for meat.

Gluten free / CELiac

We’ve welcomed many guests with gluten sensitivities and celiac, and they’ve found plenty to enjoy in Tanzanian cuisine. While grains like wheat are used in some dishes, many traditional meals are naturally gluten-free like rice, plantains, beans, vegetables, and grilled meats.

Dairy Free

Dairy isn’t a major part of most traditional Tanzanian meals, which makes it easy for guests who are dairy-free to eat well and confidently. Many staple dishes like stews, grilled meats, vegetable curries, rice, and plantains are naturally free from milk, cheese, or cream.
