The Local Experts Behind
Your Tanzania Safari

A locally owned safari company based in Arusha — planning wildlife safaris, Kilimanjaro climbs, and Zanzibar holidays for travellers from around the world for over a decade.

Our Story

Built in Arusha, Shaped by the Bush

I Artist Adventure is a locally owned and operated safari company based in Arusha, Tanzania — the gateway town to the northern safari circuit. For more than ten years we have planned and led wildlife safaris, Mount Kilimanjaro treks, cultural tours, and Zanzibar beach holidays across the country we call home.

Our safari specialists and professional guides have personally driven, walked, and slept in every destination we sell. That first-hand knowledge is what allows us to give honest advice on routes, lodges, and seasons — and to handle logistics smoothly when plans need to flex on the ground.

We work with travellers from the USA, UK, and Europe across every budget level: classic camping safaris, mid-range lodge circuits, and full luxury itineraries. Every trip is tailor-made.

“Fast response, honest pricing, and an amazing wildlife experience. Our guide could identify every bird, tree, and animal track. Kilimanjaro was the hardest thing I’ve ever done and the most rewarding.”
