About Lauwo Adventures
We are a family-owned and locally operated tour company based in Moshi and Arusha, at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro. Our story is deeply rooted in Tanzania’s history, tracing back to our grandfather, Mzee Yohani Lauwo — the legendary first African guide to lead Hans Meyer to Kilimanjaro’s summit in 1889. His spirit of adventure and love for the mountain continues to inspire everything we do today.
As a local tour company, we specialize in Kilimanjaro trekking and wildlife safaris across Tanzania, creating personalized itineraries to suit every traveler’s style and budget. Whether you prefer adventurous camping, comfortable mid-range lodges, or luxury safari escapes, we make your journey seamless, safe, and unforgettable. From climbing Africa’s highest peak to exploring the Serengeti during the Great Migration, marveling at the Ngorongoro Crater, or discovering Tarangire and Lake Manyara, every trip with us is designed to deliver once-in-a-lifetime memories.
Beyond safaris and mountain treks, we also organize cultural tours, cycling adventures, and day trips that immerse you in the authentic beauty of Tanzania. Guests can walk through coffee plantations, visit traditional villages, or cycle at the base of Kilimanjaro, connecting deeply with local people and nature.
