Tanzanian-owned, locally led, quietly luxurious
A Tanzanian-led travel atelier headquartered in Arusha, crafting private Northern Circuit safaris, Hadzabe cultural experiences at Lake Eyasi and Zanzibar holidays.
Welcome
A locally owned company with one job, to show you the real Tanzania.
Hadzabe African Safaris is a Tanzanian-led 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: the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, the Hadzabe and Datoga communities of Lake Eyasi, and the spice islands of Zanzibar.
Every itinerary we send is designed and guided by our own small team. We don't outsource our safaris. The team you book with is the same team that meets you at the airport.
