Our Journey

Our Story

A locally owned company, Tanzania Travel Company specializes in organizing custom safaris, Kilimanjaro climbs, cultural excursions, and beach getaways across Tanzania's most celebrated destinations — the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous), and Tarangire National Park — and beyond, to Zanzibar, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Mozambique, and South Africa. We want to give our clients an experience, not just a safari, by showcasing how diverse Africa's wildlife, culture, and people really are, taking you to the inaccessible places where the natural world is still untamed and close to the people who call it home.

Mission

Why we do this

To deliver unforgettable, ethically operated African safari and mountain trekking experiences that showcase the breathtaking wildlife, rich cultures, and iconic landscapes of Tanzania. We are committed to providing personalized service, ensuring the highest standards of safety and sustainability, and creating deep connections between our guests, local communities, and nature.

Vision

Where we are going

To be Tanzania's most trusted and sustainable safari and trekking partner, recognized globally for authentic local expertise, exceptional client care, and a lasting commitment to wildlife conservation and community empowerment.

Fair Pricing

We keep our prices realistic rather than maximized, because a fair price is part of delivering a genuine once-in-a-lifetime experience — and our team is paid and treated fairly in turn.

Our Team

Our guides complete college-level wildlife management coursework and regular retraining to match our clients' needs, led by safari expert Sam Diah alongside guides Livingstone and Hosea.

Certifications

Recognized by the Tanzania Tourist Board (TTB), a member of the Tanzania Association of Tour Operators (TATO) and the Interpretive Guides Society (IGS), and represented on SafariBookings.
