The Cultural Safari

A Tanzania Culture addition will compliment your safari and complete your experience of Africa. All Tanzania Culture Safaris are organized with gentleness and respect for the cultures, villagers and homes we visit. Our hope is for you to meet the diverse cultures first hand and to experience what makes Tanzania so special.

 

For Tanzania Culture Safaris or Cultural Additions to safaris please contact us direct. All cultural safaris are organized on a one off basis. Each safari is organized direct with the communities you will be visiting. Each cultural exchange also takes into account what you may or may not want to see/experience. Some Examples are visits to hospitals, schools, village and home visits. We work directly with the communities with our Initiative Programs and will ensure that all visits are done with gentleness and respect for the visitors and the communities and families/organizations being visited.

Enjoy your time here relaxing on the white sands and in the warm crystal ocean around Pangani Bay .
