Your Tanzania, Designed Around You
Private safaris and Zanzibar holidays built around your dates, pace and budget, not pulled off a shelf.
A tailor-made Tanzania safari is a private trip we plan from scratch for you. You pick the dates, the parks and how long to stay in each, the camps and lodges, and any extras such as a few nights on Zanzibar or a Kilimanjaro climb. Send us your travel window and group size and we will come back with a day-by-day route and a quote.
Plan Your Trip
Ask ten travellers what makes a great safari and you will get ten answers. Some want to wake before dawn and follow the wildebeest migration across the plains; others want long, slow afternoons at a bush camp. A honeymoon couple wants privacy; a family with young children wants space, guides who can talk to an eight-year-old, and a schedule with room for an afternoon nap. None of them should be handed the same itinerary.
Fixed departures exist because they are easy to sell. They lock you into someone else's pace and someone else's camp choices. With your own itinerary, six nights in the Serengeti and one on Zanzibar is your call, and so is a day with a Hadzabe community near Lake Eyasi. If the budget is tight and you would rather spend it on one exceptional night in a remote camp than four nights in a mid-range lodge, we will build the numbers around that.
Timing is where a safari is often won or lost. Calving season in the southern Serengeti runs roughly January to March, the river crossings further north come around June to September, and the greener months bring birdlife and lower prices. A fixed tour cannot move to meet that calendar. We look at your travel window, check where the migration and resident wildlife are likely to be, and route your days to match.
Your travel window, who is coming, how you like to travel and anything that has to happen, from a sunrise balloon flight to hot showers every night.
We match parks, camps and lodges to your interests and budget, and send the route back to you with a quote.
Swap a lodge for a tented camp, add a day, cut a transfer, add a cultural visit. We go back and forth until the plan feels right.
Internal flights, park permits and fees, vehicles and guides sized to your group, and a plan B for weather delays.
For most itineraries a guide stays with you for the ground portion of the trip, someone who knows how to read a morning and change the day's plan on the spot. That flexibility is the real value of building a safari yourself instead of buying one off a shelf.
Mix any of these into one trip. Follow a link to read about a park or activity before you ask for a quote.
Each of these can be reshaped: change the length, the lodges, the order of the parks, or add Zanzibar.
