A house of Tanzanian travel

Guided by Local Experts.

Uzawa is a small atelier of guides, planners and drivers who happen to call Tanzania home. We don't sell packages — we design private journeys, one traveller at a time, using the roads, camps and quiet corners we've spent our lives learning.

From the migration on the Serengeti to a sundowner on Zanzibar's western shore, every mile is thought through, checked, and re-checked — so you arrive present, and leave changed.

Why travel with us

Three reasons travellers trust Uzawa.

01

Local Expertise

Born and raised in Arusha, our team knows every corner of Tanzania's wilderness.

02

Personalized Journeys

Every safari is crafted to match your dreams, pace, and travel style.

03

Safety First

Professional guides, trusted vehicles, and 24/7 support throughout your adventure.

A country worth crossing continents for

Tanzania, in three long breaths.

The plains

The Serengeti in migration

Two million hooves moving with the rain. It is the largest animal migration on earth, and it happens every year without an audience.

The wild

Quiet company

Moments the herd forgets you're there.

Testimonials

★★★★★
"We came for the Serengeti and left friends with our guide, Emmanuel. Every hour of the ten days had been thought about. The best trip our family has ever taken."
The Harringtons · Family safari · United Kingdom
★★★★★
"Uzawa built us a honeymoon that felt entirely ours — balloon over the Mara-Serengeti, then a house on the sand in Matemwe. Not a single seam showed."
Priya & Daniel · Honeymoon · United States
★★★★★
"Summited Uhuru Peak at sunrise on day seven. The Uzawa team is why. Slower than most operators, and safer for it."
Marc L. · Kilimanjaro · France
★★★★★
"As a solo woman traveller, safety mattered. From airport pickup to the last drive I felt looked after — never watched. Rare and lovely."
