Our Story

Ariel Tanzania Tours and Safaris was founded on a passion for creating immersive and secure travel experiences within Tanzania. The inception of the company followed a profoundly impactful tour of the country, which inspired a deep appreciation for its unique wonders. Recognizing a significant market need for superior private tour operations, the founders partnered with one of Tanzania’s most esteemed luxury safari guides. In the subsequent years, the company successfully attracted a global clientele, introducing thousands of international travelers to Tanzania’s rich landscapes and wildlife. Currently, Ariel Tanzania Tours and Safaris employs a dedicated full-time team of 30 professionals based in Arusha and the Netherlands. The leadership now divides its time between Tanzania and the Netherlands, with on-the-ground management overseen by the experienced local office team in Arusha.
