The 7-day safari is a real “circle” on the northern route of Tanzania, as you make a detour through the Maasai area of Lake Natron and the Lobo area, the eastern part of the Serengeti. An active program takes you to the most famous parks but you’ll also drive over dusty roads in an isolated region, where time has stood still.

Zama Tours & Safaris believe that providing a tourism service is a very delicate and complicate business, and should be approached with utmost professionalism. When customers come in our hands, the first thing they should experience, even before the beauty of our country, is our memorable hospitality.

Our goal is to exceed the expectations of our guests by offering outstanding customer service, great value, safety and comfort, and above all bring your dreams to reality and craft them into a lifelong souvenir.

We offer exciting, affordable and irresistible tours and travel packages to individuals and groups. On this site you will find all information on our many destinations, some sample itineraries and a selection of services we can offer you. Needless to say that there are endlessly more alternatives…. in fact, many great tours have not made it on these pages! If you don’t see anything that immediately excites you, feel free to call for new ideas. You will find our staff knowledgeable, our pricing to be reasonable and affordable. We pride ourselves on providing honest and accurate information so that your expectations are well matched with what we can deliver.
