Tanzania Safari
Traveling to Tanzania Safari takes you to the heart of the African wilderness. Picture a cheetah feeding her fuzzy cubs, a herd of elephants grazing with snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro in the background, and a thousand-strong herd of wildebeest roaming the African Savannah. While Tanzania safari has a most famous park is the Serengeti, you’ll also find superb smaller reserves like Tarangire, Nyerere National Park, and Lake Manyara. Within the immense volcanic caldera of the Ngorongoro Crater, a vibrant ecosystem thrives with predators and their prey.
In this land teeming with wildlife, where do you begin or end your journey? As Tanzania safari specialists, African Diurnal Safaris can help design your perfect holiday in Tanzania. From the best time to visit to the must-see attractions, we’ll guide you at every step and create an action-packed itinerary. African Diurnal Safaris will plan every early morning and evening game drive in open-sided vehicles with experienced local guides who ensure you see everything on your bucket list and more. Whether you’re tracking chimpanzees in the Mahale Mountains or witnessing the Great Migration, we’ve got you covered. After a day of safari adventures, relax with sundowners in comfortable camp chairs overlooking the escarpment of the Rift Valley.
Off Tanzania’s coast, the Zanzibar archipelago awaits, rich in nature and culture. Spend an afternoon exploring the World Heritage Site of Stone Town before heading back to the coral-filled waters of the Indian Ocean and its pristine beaches. Join the most discerning travelers who seek post-safari pampering in this idyllic setting.

Excellent and Outstanding Trip Our 5 day safari with African Diurnal Safaris exceeded every expectation. The communication with Lameck was fast, clear, and professional from the very first message. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire trip. Every detail was perfectly organized — hotels, meals, routes, game drives — everything was handled with care and precision. We saw the Big Five, stunning landscapes, and experienced Tanzania in the most authentic way. Truly great value for money and a company you can fully rely on. Highly recommend African Diurnal Safaris.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Amazing Safari An amazing experience in Kenya on safari. African Diurnal were great from the beginning booking to the end of the trip. They offered fantastic payment and cancellation terms that really made us feel comfortable. They were very clear with their communications beforehand and had everything prepared for our arrival in Kenya. Their driver (Robert) was truly fantastic, with local knowledge and a calmness that put us at ease straight away. His wildlife knowledge enabled us to have really close encounters with all of the big five! We also witnessed a cheetah and lion double kill on our last game drive! Amazing! Would highly recommend this company for an East African safari experience!Posted on Google![]()

We embarked on a luxurious 12-day safari adventure in Tanzania and Kenya, during which we explored the breathtaking Serengeti and the renowned Masai Mara. This experience was not only wonderful but also far surpassed our expectations regarding the diverse wildlife and stunning landscapes we encountered. We were fortunate to observe hundreds of elephants, giraffes, buffalos, hippos, lions, and countless other species, including the magnificent leopards and cheetahs. The expertise and dedication of our guides, Elisante in Tanzania and David in Kenya, were significant highlights of our trip. Their extensive knowledge of the region and its wildlife, coupled with their genuine passion for their work, contributed to a seamless and delightful journey. I highly recommend African Diurnal Safaris.+4Posted on Google![]()

Very knowledgeable about wildlife and a perfect and safe driver who pays respect to wildlife 🐆 Lameck is the owner of this wonderful safari agency. He is born and raised a little outside Serengeti and knows tremendous much about the wildlife in Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. He speaks perfectly English and during our shared dinner, we have talked about nature, politics, culture, religion, history - we have learned so much! Very importantly he is an experienced and safe driver who also takes care of the animals e.g. waiting for animals to cross roads in contrast to many other drivers we saw on our way. We experienced a flat tire on night - but no problem! Lameck could fix it right away 🙌 We are so happy, that we consider to hire the company next year for a safari in Uganda and/or Kenya 🦒Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Amazing 7 day safari experiences in Northern Tanzania Unforgettable safari experience with African Diurnal Safaris . I and my husband went on a 7-days safari adventure covering Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara national park and had the most spectacular experience. The guide Lameck goes above and beyond to give us an unforgettable safari. With Lameck’s help we managed to see all the big five’s and we had incredible experiences seeing both lions and Leopard hunting prey. The selected accommodations (Tortilis Camps and Karatu Tented Lodge) was top norch and food were great throughout the whole safari trip. Would highly recommend anyone going for a safari with African Diurnal Safaris and choose Lameck to be your safari guide you won't regret.
