Travelling at your own pace

Freedom with peace of mind

Want to discover Tanzania your own way, but with the reassurance of an experienced guide? At Kembe Safari you can hire a 4x4 Land Cruiser with a driver-guide.

You decide whether you only want the transport arranged or would rather map out a fully organised trip with us. With our driver you have the freedom of a flexible route and the reassurance that everything is properly arranged.

Already sorted your own flights and accommodation, but still want the freedom and ease of a professionally organised safari? Then you can hire just a vehicle with driver-guide from us. We provide experienced drivers, well-equipped vehicles and local expertise.

A stay on Zanzibar afterwards is also possible, so your whole trip runs without a worry.
