The real heroes of your safari
At Kembe Safari our guides are what makes a trip unforgettable. Their deep knowledge of the landscape, the wildlife and the rich culture of Tanzania brings every day on the road to life.
All our guides have completed an official guide training course in Tanzania. They are not only experts in their field, but genuinely passionate about sharing their love for this breathtaking place with you.
They know exactly where your chances of spotting the Big Five are best, and they recognise the many bird species Tanzania is home to. Their expertise makes your safari not only informative but exciting and enlightening too.

Safety and a personal connection
Safety is the top priority on every safari. Our guides are trained in safety procedures and know the routes and conditions in the parks inside out.
That gives you the peace of mind to immerse yourself completely in the experience: enjoying the breathtaking landscapes and spotting wildlife, knowing you are in safe hands.
And because your interests come first, your guide adapts each day to what you want: wildlife, culture or photography. That is what makes your safari a trip tailored to you.
