“Best vacation so far"

We booked a Tanzania trip including Zanzibar and a safari and were more than satisfied. This trip was one of the best vacations I've had so far, thanks to the top organization by Fahamu Safaris. A really professional, reliable and friendly team that really knows their way around Tanzania.

“Fahamu saved the day…and more!”

Fahamu literally picked up the pieces and planned a safari for us overnight when ours was compromised. It was beyond exceptional which speaks volumes to the dedication they have to their customers and expertise in their field.

My family and I went on a four day safari with Fahamu Safari and had the best time of our lives. We really experienced memories for a lifetime. This was due to the fact that we had the best guide and driver we could ever hope for.
