Tanzanian-owned, locally led, quietly luxurious
A Tanzanian travel atelier headquartered in Arusha, crafting private safaris, Kilimanjaro ascents and Zanzibar holidays since 2012.
Welcome
A locally owned company with one job, to show you the real Tanzania.
Serengeti Wakanda Tours & Safaris is a Tanzanian travel company headquartered in Arusha. Founded and managed with a genuine passion for delivering exceptional experiences, we exist to introduce you to the wonders of our homeland, Kilimanjaro, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire and the spice islands of Zanzibar.
Every itinerary we send is designed, operated and guided by Tanzanians. We don't outsource our safaris. We don't sub-contract our climbs. The team you book with is the same team that meets you at the airport.
