Tales of Tanzania is a family-owned safari company based in Arusha, born from a deep love for our homeland. Our story began in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro, in the small village of Machame, where we first worked as porters and mountain guides. With years of experience and a passion for sharing Tanzania’s beauty, we grew into a trusted safari operator—crafting unforgettable journeys across our breathtaking country.

Well-organized and very friendly
I spent a week on safari in Tanzania and 2.5 days in Zanzibar. Everything was perfectly organized and went off without a hitch. This allowed me to relax and focus entirely on the animals and landscape. My guide, Charles, showed me all the animals and provided me with lots of interesting facts about everything that piqued my interest.
Planning the trip was straightforward, and communication remained very friendly, efficient, and prompt throughout the journey.
I would definitely book with Tales of Tanzania again—not just because of the great value for money, but because of the entire experience.
Thoughtful, well-suggested itinerary following our wishes and with knowledgable input.
We really liked working with this company very much; the staff was attentive and wanted to fit in all that we wanted to see in the time we had, including suggestions for more sightseeing in areas we were not familiar with. We had never-to-be forgotten experiences with the Chimp and Gorilla trekking in Uganda, all the animals we encountered in the Serengeti in Tanzania, and the beautiful culture and beauty of Morocco. Pendo was always making sure we were taken care of throughout the trip, and we can't thank the guides and drivers enough who made sure we saw all that we could in these 3 countries..
That said, we would like to highlight the most amazing guides and drivers we had the pleasure of traveling with! They were easy to communicate with:
Uganda: Shamim (wonderful driver and guide!)
Ronnie (Swamp guide, monkey & chimp trekking)
Emmanuel Mpatswe (gorilla trekking)
Tanzania: DISMAS Mally!! He was GREAT!! Among other sightings, he got us to see the crossing of the Wildebeests and Zebra in record
time, 2 days in a row! He was very knowledgeable and sensitive to what we wanted to see.
Morocco: Aissam Charach, our FANTASTIC guide all the way through the cities we visited, and our driver, Ismail, also FANTASTIC!
They were wonderful to work with. Both were so attentive!
Unforgettable
We booked with Tales of Tanzania for our safari honeymoon and it did not disappoint. Pendo and her team were very responsive in the planning process and worked with us to create an itinerary. We must have gone through almost 10 different itineraries before it was finalized and each version was done promptly with kindness. The planning process could not have gone better.
When we met up with our driver, Dismas, we knew we were in good hands and had made a great decision! He was extremely knowledgable and was flexible to our needs and schedules. We didn't feel any pressure one way or another and similar to the planning process were presented with options and facts to make the best decision for what we wanted for our trip. We feel incredibly fortunate that we were able to see all of the big five and a river crossing in the north! Dismas' instinct was unmatched and we often went a different way from other companies and it always seemed to pay off with an incredible animal sighting.
Going with a smaller, local tour company provided us with greater customization both in planning and throughout our trip. In speaking with other guests at our camps, it was clear we had made the best choice!

fantastic tour operator
I chose this tour operator because they immediately understood what I wanted. The safari was perfect. Everything went according to plan. All our requests were answered within minutes. The prices are very good. I will book with Tales of Tanzania Safaris again.
Charles was a fantastic tour guide, he accommodated to our needs in our safari adventure.
Going on safari with Tales of Tanzania is like being in family. They will meet your needs and adjust the schedule upon your request.
The owners are constantly communicating with the guide to be sure all is going as scheduled.
Our guide was fantastic.
Our safari dreams came true.
Thank you my Tanzania family!
