The collection

Three safari collections. One country, properly known.

Start with Signature Private, move into the greater privacy and specialist access of Private Reserve, or choose a Grand Journey that joins safari with the mountain or the Indian Ocean. Hidden Tanzania and the specialist collection remain for travellers whose route begins with a place, season or particular interest. Every journey is planned out of our office in Moshi, then rebuilt around your dates, pace and party.

41 is a great many routes to choose between. Tell us what you are dreaming about and we will tell you which one we would put you on, and why.

41 journeys

Collection I · Signature Private Safaris

The iconic routes, privately and properly paced

Road and short-haul journeys through Tanzania’s best-known wildlife landscapes. Public prices are planning guides; the written proposal confirms the dates, camps, fees and aviation behind the final figure.

Collection II · Private Reserve Journeys

More position, privacy and control of your time

Seasonal wildlife, strategic aviation, specialist vehicles and remote camps where the upgrade changes the journey rather than merely decorating it.

Collection III · Grand Tanzania Journeys

Mountain, wilderness and ocean in one considered arc

Long-form journeys for travellers who want Tanzania as a complete story, with enough days for every chapter to register.

Hidden Tanzania

The country most travellers never reach

Chimpanzees on Lake Tanganyika, a soda lake under an active volcano, cloud forest older than the Rift, a coast with nothing built on it. These are not cheaper alternatives — several are the most demanding journeys we run. They are what a Tanzanian operator knows that a catalogue does not.

For a particular traveller

Journeys built around a season, an interest or how you travel

The same country, answering a different question — which months, which subject, and who is going. Every one of these is a full journey rather than a variation, because the routing genuinely changes when the reason for coming does.

None of these is fixed. If the right trip is two of them joined together, say so and we will cost it that way.
