What an amazing safari we have had these past 5 days in Arusha National Park, Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and finally the always show stopping and spectacular Serengeti National Park! Our guides are our lifeline and these two knocked it out of the park!

Today we took a great hike in the Great Rift Valley to the Enduro Elephant Caves. These caves were formed by elephants digging through dense rock with their tusks to ingest the vitamin-rich soil. Let us show you!

Did you know that a giraffe’s tongue is 18-20 inches long and prehensile - allowing it took forage and pull leaves from plants avoiding the thorns on the acacia tree? Because they forage high in the trees, it is blue/purple in color - allowing extra melanin to protect it from the sun!

Not a bad view. Cheetah are known to climb onto things to get a better vantage point for hunting. Typically this is a termite mound, a low branch, or god forbid a nearby car blocking their view. Leopards are know to be tree climbers. Here we captured a cheetah high up in a sizable tree overlooking the savannah at dawn. What a capture by

Our small company has a real family-like feel. From the office staff and guides managing your safari to the personal connection one owners develop with the clients. The biggest compliment we can receive is when a former client sends fheir friends on safari. Ethan and Maureen were referred to us by our good friend Henry who has known Salim as a client since he started the company. Karibu sana!!!

We know you want to see this if it’s cold and snowing near you!

Wishing all of our family and friends, coworkers and suppliers and future client (who will become friends and family) the best 2025 filled with happiness, health and blessings.

A trip to Serval Wildlife can be arranged for those who want up close experiences with the animals. It is about 45 minutes from the airport and 2 hours from Arusha town.

A warm warm welcome to our clients to the office. We Tanzanians love to sign and dance and our clients loved the greeting they got when arriving to the office.

Earlier this year we visited Gombe Stream. This is where Jane Goodall did pioneering chimpanzee research. It remains a remote and untouched part of mainland Tanzania. You get there via a boat ride in Lake Tanganyika, the 2nd longest and deepest lake in the world! Look at the sheer beauty! Join us at Gombe Stream!

Seeing these intimate tender moments of a mama lion caring for her cubs is one of the most amazing parts of a privately curated sadari. We can focus on exactly what you want to see and spend as much time as you want there… Not having to rush and leave to please everyone in a group joining safari contact us to ask more about a privately curated safari with @offthebeatenpath_safaris #wildafrica #offthebeatenpath #tanzaniasafari .

The pier divers at Fordhani Park are so much fun. Zanzibar is the PERFECT way to end your safari! Thanks @history_of_west for recording this for us!

We really enjoying the Zulu signers and dancers at WTM. You can see the attendees really got into it. Watch to the end to see same amazing dancing!

Safari is such an amazing way to spend time with family and friends. Can you grab your 5 and (or whatever group size you have!) and join us on safari? You find the group and leave the planning to us!

Beautiful boys enjoying the evening.

We are so proud to be awarded the Trip Advisor Travelers Choice award for another year. This award is given to the companies in the top 10% of their realm. We thank our clients for reviewing us and we strive to keep climbing to be the best local tour operator in Tanzania!
