This four-day Tanzania cultural safari is for travellers who want to meet the people of the land as well as the wildlife. Walk through the farms and markets of Mto wa Mbu, join the Hadzabe, one of Africa's last hunter-gatherer communities, on a dawn hunt at Lake Eyasi, and learn metal work from the Datoga.
On day three you visit a Maasai boma in the Ngorongoro highlands and descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for a game drive. All visits are arranged with local guides from the communities, and part of the fee goes directly to them.
Responsible cultural visits
We work with community guides who agree each visit in advance. Ask before taking photographs, dress modestly and follow your guide's lead. Your guide will explain customs and translate so you can ask questions.
Add more wildlife
This trip can be extended with Tarangire or the Serengeti, or see our 8-day cultural and wildlife safari for a longer version.
