Our main objective at Maasai Wanderings is to share the magic of Tanzania with the world via the preservation of culture, wildlife and our own goodwill projects. We have arranged our company in such a way, that we are able to provide assistance in these areas by funding various projects that we have initiated ourselves. We offer an array of safari adventures and utilize profits to maintain our own community projects in Tanzania.

We operate lodge safaris, cultural safaris, walking safaris, treks and hikes with absolute adherence to quality of service, value for money and cultural integrity. We carefully maintain our itineraries, running extra field trip missions to confirm or establish new and improved paths for carrying out our itineraries in order to provide our clients with the most enjoyable and culturally educating experience possible. We present continual staff education workshops to offer our client optimal service for their personal journeys and adventures. At Maasai Wanderings we believe in handpicking our staff not only based on their knowledge and experience but also their ‘personability’ and natural hospitality from arrival to departure. They know what factors make an adventure ‘special’.

At Maasai Wanderings, we have a fleet of Toyota Landcruiser 4WD vehicles, modified for game driving and wildlife viewing.  These include extended 7 seater and normal 5 seater versions.  Each vehicle has a pop top or hatch roof, large windows, charging system, first aid kits, Simba jack, fire extinguisher, reflector triangles, tool kits, some with refrigerators and is driven by an individual driver.  We have our own garage and mechanics on-site for services and repairs and they can even convert our own vehicles to the extended version when required. 

Our team of Safari Guides speak English, French, Spanish, Russian, Italian and Swahili; as well as their own tribal languages.  All members have a minimum of eight years guiding experience, with a minimum of Certificate of Wildlife & Guiding (two year course). Each guide has guide books and binoculars to offer for use by the clients. However, if clients would like exclusive use of binoculars, they should bring or hire their own. The guide teams are recognizable by their khaki short or long sleeve shorts, khaki short or long trousers, cap, black vest or sweater; all embroidered with our uniform logo.

Our Mountain Guides and Team were all born in the Kilimanjaro region and therefore possess knowledge of the mountains that cannot be taught. We have an extremely high success rate on the Machame, Rongai and Shira routes on Kilimanjaro and continue to receive praise for our professionalism throughout all our itineraries. Our Chefs are all college-trained and understand the art of creating delicious cuisine with limited resources while adhering to the ‘laws of hygiene’.

We pay above award wages and work together as a family, sharing good times and bad.  We have a sponsorship scheme for our guides’ families, whereby one child per year, of school age, is sponsored into education.  We believe this to be the key to escaping the cycle of poverty.

We receive a lot of appreciation from clients who identify with our charitable objectives and we, in turn, appreciate any suggestions. We hope that you will appreciate our sentiments and support us in our journey!

KARIBU SANA.
