THE SABABU PHILOSOPHY:
At Sababu Safaris, we believe that travel can be the catalyst to inspire us, touch our souls, and make us feel truly connected and alive. We’ve experienced first-hand the transformative power of travel and its ability to create lasting change in the world — especially when done in a more intentional and more meaningful way. We believe that. at its core, travel is an investment in new experiences, meaningful memories, shared connections, and personal growth as we meet new people, explore parts unknown, and gain a deeper appreciation of cultural diversity. It’s about learning and growing into our own unique way of engaging with the world, being awed by its natural beauty and revelling in that bond across physical borders. In the end, traveling lets us live with more meaning and purpose so that we can make a lasting impact in the world - one trip at a time.

Tailor-Made Safaris
We are an owner-run boutique company with an international team. We are committed to creating a unique experience which meets your needs and exceeds your expectations and dreams. All our safari itineraries are uniquely crafted and tailored to the specific month of travel to facilitate the most optimal game viewing conditions but you will be able to completely customize your own private safari based on your travel style, preferences and interests. We offer all-inclusive safaris that will take you deep into the isolated wilderness where packaged tour companies don't go. No mixed groups, no competing for views with strangers, and no conflicting interests. With SABABU SAFARIS, you will enjoy the exclusive use of a private, specially outfitted 4x4 Toyota Land Cruiser with pop-up roof providing for maximum flexibility, comfort and wildlife viewing.
Local Operator
Unlike most safari companies, we are a local Tanzanian based operator. You’ll be able to directly communicate with our team on the ground. No agents and no outsourcing your safari. We thoroughly regulate the high quality and standards of our services so that we are able to deliver the safari experience of a lifetime. To ensure you are able to communicate with us in a timely manner, we have a US and Tanzania number (and we also speak German)!
Unlimited Game Drives
Each of our safaris offers unlimited game drives with no mileage or fuel restrictions and exclusive access to the most secluded and wildlife abundant areas in Tanzania. If you feel adventurous, we'll pack picnics and remain out on safari all day!
EXCEPTIONAL Guides
We only work with the most experienced, professional and passionate guides who have been taking guests on safaris for at least 10 years. Your safari experience is highly dependent on your guide’s skills, passion, hard work and competency, and we will ensure that you receive the finest safari experience. Our eagle-eyed guides are all Tanzania specialists and each one knows in detail the best wildlife viewing areas, secret spots off the beaten path, migratory animal movements and their behavior. And they like to have a lot of fun doing it!
Tanzania Specialist
We have chosen to specialize in Tanzania, which makes us experts in the local wildlife and regions, and allows us to create a special and unique experience for our guests—as opposed to other companies offering standard tours to many different African countries.
