Following a satisfying breakfast, embark on a journey to Tarangire National Park, celebrated for its distinctive baobab trees and impressive gatherings of elephants. Your destination is our thoughtfully arranged campsite nestled within the park, offering an exquisite fusion of lavish comfort and untamed surroundings.

Indulge in a delectable lunch before venturing into an afternoon game drive. Here, amidst the sprawling African savannah, you’ll be treated to the sight of elephants, lions, and an array of wildlife that call this terrain home. As the sun wanes, return to the campsite for an intimate evening around the crackling campfire, where tales are shared under the twinkling expanse of the starry night.

Rise to the symphony of nature’s awakening and venture onto an exhilarating morning game drive in the enchanting realm of Tarangire. Following this captivating experience, proceed to Lake Manyara National Park, famed for its vibrant avian population and the sight of lions ascending trees.

After enjoying a hearty breakfast, set forth on your journey to the renowned Serengeti National Park, an emblematic symbol of African wildlife. Nestled strategically within the heart of the Serengeti, your campsite promises an authentic safari encounter while ensuring your comfort remains paramount. As you make your way to the campsite, engage in a captivating game drive, bearing witness to the astounding variety of wildlife that populates the expansive plains. Upon your arrival, embrace the serenity of the Serengeti’s unspoiled magnificence as the sun gracefully dips below the horizon from your campsite vantage point.

Dedicate two complete days to immersing yourself in the vast tapestry of the Serengeti’s landscapes through exhilarating game drives. Observe the enthralling theater of predator-prey dynamics and bear witness to the breathtaking spectacle of the annual wildebeest migration (seasonal), as thousands of creatures traverse the plains in quest of nourishment.

As each day winds down, find solace at the campsite where you can relax and exchange your safari escapades with fellow adventurers. Allow the harmonious melodies of the wilderness to serenade you into slumber within the cozy confines of your tent.

Indulge in a leisurely breakfast before embarking on a scenic drive to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, where the illustrious Ngorongoro Crater takes center stage. Delve into the depths of this UNESCO World Heritage Site as you descend into the crater, where a striking tapestry of wildlife awaits your discovery. Amidst this natural masterpiece, pause for a delightful picnic lunch that amplifies the experience. As the day progresses, ascend to our campsite perched atop the crater’s rim, where stunning vistas and tranquil surroundings await your arrival.

Use This Local Tour Operator! Sam is Great! Sam was an incredible host, and he delivered a trip that exceeded our wildest expectations. He was extremely attentive, and it was clear that our business meant a lot to him. It also felt so much better to use a local tour operator rather than a travel agent based overseas. Tanzania is a magical place, and they deserve to have the money from safaris flow through their own economy. We would definitely use Sam again!

Locally owned and run tour operator We had a very large family trip to Tanzania that Sam helped make happen. He was available before during and after our trip to respond to our questions and to help make sure we were having the experience we were looking for. We met two of his beautiful children while we were in Arusha and at the very end, we had the privilege of meeting his lovely wife. This made us feel so connected to him and we felt so good about having this personal and special experience rather than have booked with a company where management sat in an office overseas. He also sent us on safari with two outstanding guides - Livingstone and Hosea. They really took care of us and we felt privileged to spend time with them as well. It is not easy to find a local tour operator and if this is something you value while planning a trip to Tanzania, I encourage you to reach out to Sam.

So glad I went local! 10/10 amazing experience This was the trip of a lifetime. I was responsible for planning our (9 person!) family trip to Tanzania, which was exciting... but a lot of pressure! It was important to us to use a local agency, locally-owned operators, and locally-owned lodges throughout our stay. Sam was a godsend. We worked together to choose great destinations, lodges, and even a hot air balloon safari. Sam is the head of the local tour operators association and knows everything there is to know about safari in Tanzania. He made himself very available - we must have exchanged hundreds of whatsapps and dozens of emails in preparation for our trip. When we arrived in Arusha, I was extra glad we had chosen to work with someone based locally. We had a lovely BBQ dinner with Sam and his family before heading out on our 10 day safari. During the trip, Sam was in frequent communication with our guides to make sure that everything was going well. When we flew from Serengeti back to Arusha, Sam and his wife met us for lunch before sending us off. The trip itself was unbelievable. Our guides, Hoseah and Livingstone, were seasoned veterans. We saw every safari animal I could have dreamed of - plus some I didn't even know existed! I'm glad I took lots of photos, but not sure I needed to - these memories will last a lifetime!

Superb Safari Experience! Our large family just had an unforgettable Safari adventure thanks to Sam and his amazing staff. Our guides were knowledgeable and professional. The sites we saw over these 10 days were simply spectacular! We learned so much about plants, animals and Tanzanian culture. We were committed to choosing a local company and we are so glad that we chose Tanzanian Travel & Safari Company. Sam was with us every step of the way – during the months prior to our journey and all throughout our Safari adventure. He was invaluable in booking many of our accommodations. He truly cared about our experience. I strongly urge you to reach out to Sam when you are planning your own African adventure.

An Amazing Safari Experience Our family of 9 had an amazing Safari experience thanks to Sam, Livingstone and Hosea. It is hard to say which destination was the best between Tarangire, Ngorogoro Crater and the Serengeti. The animals, the birds, the landscape, the weather and the lovely staff in each location made the experience one of a lifetime. Our guides were very knowledgeable, accomodating, flexible, and driven to meet our needs. They helped us to see the Big Five and so much more. I recommend this tour company.

Fabulous! TTC were instrumental in putting together a rather ambitious hiking/climbing/camping adventure for me . It involved climbing Mount Longido, wild camping there and hiking sections of the Maasai plains followed by climbing Mount Meru and camping on Mount Meru too! Due to logistics and the fact that Mount Longido had been unvisited since pre pandemic, meant it was truly raw, unspoiled and wild! A brilliant experience for myself of course but it wasn't without it's challenges for my amazing support team ( my mountain family! ). Mount Meru was another amazing experience. Having climbed Mount Kilimanjaro a number of years ago, personally I found Mount Meru more beautiful and definitely not a "cake walk"....it was a true challenge but very rewarding. Summit night was tough....! Camping on Mount Meru also contributed to the uniqueness of my adventure. Thank you Sam and my incredible mountain family for making my madcap trip a reality.....and such fun!

Kilimanjaro Lemosho route TTC were amazing throughout my trek to the Kilimanjaro summit in October 2022. Everything was organised so well but the really exceptional aspect was the team of local support staff and guide. AJ, Paul, Isaya, Joseph, Pascal, Renata and the 30 other fantastic people that carried, cooked, camped and cared for us. Absolutely loved every second, a trip of a lifetime, thank you 🙏

Once in a lifetime experience I climbed Kilimanjaro with the Tanzanian Travel Company (booked through Charity Challenge UK) in October 2022. Everything was superbly coordinated by TTC, who arranged everything from porters, transport, food, tents- pretty much everything we needed to get to the summit! All of the staff from the guides and porters were very friendly and their knowledge was unrivalled. Special mentions to our lead guide, Richard, who's advice was invaluable and the other guides and porters David, Eric and Joseph (there are too many to mention). Would definitely book again with TTC in the future.
