Private itineraries across all seven of Tanzania’s circuits. Safari, culture, mountain and coast, each one drawn from a blank page around your dates, your pace and your curiosity.

Every route begins with a conversation.

You tell us the dates, the interests and how you like to travel. We build the route, choose the camps, arrange the guides and handle every transfer in between.

We work across all of Tanzania, beyond the famous Northern parks, because the right itinerary depends on the season, the traveler and what is happening on the ground right now.

No two journeys we compose are alike. None exists until you ask for it.

Four ways into Tanzania.

Safari, cultural encounters, mountain treks and island stays. Most journeys combine two or three, and we help you decide which, and in what order. Open one, then add it to your route.

Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire, Nyerere, Ruaha and Katavi. Private game drives, walking safaris in Wildlife Management Areas and night drives where permits allow.

Walk with Hadzabe hunter-gatherers at dawn. Learn Maasai beadwork. Harvest seaweed with Zanzibari women. Visit Chagga coffee farms in the Kilimanjaro foothills.

Kilimanjaro by Machame, Lemosho, Rongai or the Northern Circuit. Mount Meru as acclimatization or on its own. The Usambara highlands for something quieter.

Stone Town’s history, Mnemba Atoll’s sandbanks, Mafia Island’s whale sharks and Pemba’s dive sites. Spice farms, dhow sailing and quiet stretches of coast most visitors never reach.

Six regions, one country.

Tanzania holds far more than its Northern circuit. We design routes across every region, including the parks, lakes and coastlines that rarely make an operator’s website. Pick a region to see where it sits from Arusha.

Two million hooves, one ancient rhythm.

The herds move all year, and where you should be depends on the month. Choose a month and watch the herd go there. We position your safari camp by camp to match.

Where to be

Four points of departure.

Start from one of these and we reshape it around you. Pick a ticket to see the route drawn.
