Our Story
Guides born in the wild, passionate about sharing it with the world.
Who We Are
Born in the Bush,
Built for Adventure
Savanna Routes was founded by a group of Tanzanian naturalists who grew up in the shadow of Kilimanjaro and spent their childhoods tracking animals across the Serengeti. What began as a small guiding operation in Arusha has grown into one of Tanzania's most trusted safari companies.
We believe that the best safari is one that feels personal — where your guide knows the name of the lion in the pride, where your camp is positioned for the perfect sunrise, and where every detail is handled before you even think to ask.
Our team of over 50 specialist guides, naturalists, and logisticians share one common goal: to give you the kind of wilderness experience that changes how you see the world.
