— Our Background

A Tanzanian Company Sharing the Real Tanzania

Mima Adventures Africa is a locally owned Tanzanian tour company based in Arusha. We plan private safaris, Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru treks, cultural tours, and Zanzibar beach holidays for travellers who want to experience Tanzania with people who know it well.

Our company is led by a safari guide with more than 16 years of field experience. That matters. It means your trip is planned by someone who understands the parks, the roads, the seasons, the wildlife, and the small details that can make a journey feel smooth.

We are proud of Tanzania, and proud to show you our home. With Mima Adventures, you do more than visit famous places. You travel with local people who know the land, the culture, the animals, and the stories behind the landscapes.

Whether you are travelling as a couple, family, honeymooner, or group, we take time to understand what you want from the journey before we recommend a route. If you prefer a comfortable lodge safari, a camping safari, or a higher-end journey, we help you choose the pace, accommodation, and details that fit your style.

Our experience, local knowledge, and personal service are what make us one of Tanzania's trusted safari operators.

— How we do it —

We start with the kind of experience you want: the parks you hope to visit, how many days you have, your budget, your comfort level, and whether you are travelling as a couple, family, or group. Every enquiry is treated personally, because no two travellers come to Tanzania for exactly the same reason.

From there, we build a route that makes sense on the ground. We look at driving times, wildlife seasons, lodge locations, park fees, and the rhythm of each day. Our goal is simple: a safari that feels personal, well-paced, and guided by real local knowledge.

This is our country. We want you to see its wildlife, meet its people, understand its cultures, and return home with a real feeling for Tanzania.

— How we do it —

Where You’ll Find the Big Five

Northern Tanzania is one of the best safari regions in Africa, especially for travellers hoping to see lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards, and rhinos. A classic route often combines Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater.

Serengeti National Park

Known for its endless open plains, big cats and the Great Migration, when vast herds of wildebeest and zebra move through the ecosystem.

Ngorongoro Crater

A dramatic volcanic caldera packed with wildlife, from lions and elephants to flamingos, hippos and the rare black rhino.

Kilimanjaro National Park

Home to Africa's highest mountain, with unforgettable trekking routes through rainforest, moorland, alpine desert and glacier views.

Lake Manyara

A compact park with lush groundwater forest, flamingo-lined shores, elephants, hippos and excellent birdlife beneath the Rift Valley wall.

Tarangire National Park

Famous for ancient baobab trees and large elephant herds, especially in the dry season when wildlife gathers along the Tarangire River.

Loved by Travellers Worldwide

					  Tansania gamedrives with Freddie - Let me report our personal experience from a 8-days-safari and gamedrives, guided by our private guide Freddie from Arusha in Feb 2024.

Freddie has made it easy for us to... read more summarize our trip in a way that it he has provided us very good service, support, guidance and valuable information about wildlife and the visited parks and regions at all times.

We had a lot of fun due to his humour and very good language skills in both English and German.

Freddie tried to adopt our gamedrives in terms of venues and schedules according to our priorities, knowing that this is difficult due to distances and the dynamics of seasonal wildlife movements.

He is a positive character expressing the necessary confidence and trust in security which is also a relevant point in this country and region.

We will come back again!

					  Over two weeks in December 2021 we undertook several safaris in northern Tanzania with Fred as our guide. The trip included Aruha NP, Tarangire NP;Manyara NP,Ngorongoro CA and Crater NP,... read more Serengeti NP, Lake Masek NP, and - as first location - Machare Coffee Lodge. All visits and safaris were wonderful events; we enjoyed it very much and we learned very much about Tanzania, its people (we met may very nice individuals) its wild life and nature. Fred is not only a very friendly and patient guide, he also is an exquisite expert who taught  us much bout his home country, the Tanzanian people and, off course, every thing about wild life and flora. The whole journey was best organized and the accommodation facilities were fine with not a minimum draw back (mostly tented camps or similar). The meals were good as well. Noteworthy, this journey took place during the covid pandemic and despite this negative precondition it turned out to be a great and unforgettable  experience  to us. We recommend similar safaris to every one including families with children and photographers.
