View Profile

Brilliant Adventures and Safaris is a company owned and operated by a local Tanzanian family who have a love of travel and a wealth of knowledge about Tanzania, its wildlife, flora and fauna. We have been designing bespoke safari vehicles for years. It is almost an obsession because it is so important to your enjoyment of wildlife. So ours can be opened up all round.  • The front windscreen is not only larger than any of our competitors, but it can be quickly opened flat so that you can enjoy unobstructed forward viewing and cooling breezes – and just as easily closed up should the weather change. • Our rear side windows can also be folded open – sliding panes, frames and all – to let you feel closer to nature and to give you completely unobstructed side views for photography or just relaxed enjoyment. • Our roof hatches are not the notorious ‘pop top’. Our roofs open up completely – open you to the beauty of the skies, the birds and the tree tops. No more squirming around the ‘pop top’ to see that leopard in the tree beside you, or those wonderful squadrons of pelicans or storks spiralling upwards on air thermals. And if the sun is hot we have hats for you, or can quickly close the hatches as needed.  We also give you more leg room in the vehicle by reducing the number of seats, and this also gives us space in the back to carry comfortable picnic chairs and tables for that private picnic spot away from crowds.

Our motto is “Go Different…” because we aim to innovate and bring in new ideas to the industry, especially in this ever-changing travel industry.

We aim to collaborate with like-minded individuals and organizations in the industry to promote and protect our flora, fauna, cultures, landscapes, and economy.

Our objective at the end of the day is to bring happiness and peace to our clients and perhaps a new way to look at the world.

Our Mission

To conduct safaris and tours that will show the beauty and magnificence of Tanzania’s wilderness and wildlife, the strength of her culture and the graciousness of her people.

To strive for our guests to enjoy outstanding experiences and to return safely to their homes with new perspectives and maybe even lives changed.

To strive that all parties to these adventures – our guests themselves and their various travel partners grow in strength and success.

In all these endeavors to focus on high product quality which rewards both the Customer and the company.

Customer service and the personal touch, Connecting travelers to locals and authentic experiences, Unique local knowledge and expertise about your destinations

Our motto is "Go Different...". We are known for innovation and bringing new ideas to the industry, especially in the ever-changing travel industry.

We know precisely how to lead you to the top of Mt Kilimanjaro, point out the ideal places to observe wildlife, and advise you on the optimum time to visit Zanzibar's stunning beaches.

When we customize itineraries for our guests, our sole aim is to serve your interests.

When choosing your accommodation, we put your interests first, as we do not own any camp or lodge. We have planned every scenario to ensure that our guests' holidays are everything they have imagined.

Visa requirements
Visa Requirements

Make sure that you have a valid passport whose expiry date is sufficient for you to be allowed to enter Tanzania. (Usually, the expiry date must be at least six months from the date of travel, for tourists, and longer for business travelers.) Except for those traveling from certain African countries (and a few other countries), all visitors to Tanzaniamust have a valid visa. It is the responsibility of travelers to arrange this. We recommend all our guests to arrange visa well in advance to avoid the long visa queue at the Airport. You can arrange your online visa via Tanzania eVisa - Welcome (immigration.go.tz).

If you are arriving at Kilimanjaro International Airport, without having arranged a visa in advance, please follow the procedure outlined below, to ensure that you get the correct visa and meet up with your driver-guide outside the arrival door:

1. Complete the visa request form (either on the flight or on arrival)

2. Join the queue for one of the visa counters - please don't let yourself be assisted by anybody at the airport or be persuaded to give your visa money to anyone apart from the staff at the counter

3. Pay for the visa - USD 100 per person for US nationals and USD 50 per person for nationals of other countries (visa fees are payable in cash ONLY and US bills should not be older than 2009)

4. Make sure that you get a receipt for this transaction – the receipt is yellowish-orange color with a silver seal sticker.

5. Verify that the number on the receipt is the same as the one written on top of the visa stamp on your passport

6. Queue up for your fingerprints and passport check

7. Collect your luggage and leave by the exit door

8. Outside the exit door you will see our driver-guide holding the Brilliant Adventures and Safaris’ signboard

9. If you are arriving in Kenya, prior to transferring to Tanzania, you should familiarize yourself with any Kenyan visa requirements that may apply and ensure you obtain thenecessary visa or transit visa for that country, too. Useful informationregarding visas for Tanzania and Kenya can be found on the Tanzanian Embassy websites in your home country.

Health & Safety
Vaccinations and medications  We highly recommend that you consult with your physician or a travel medical doctor for advice in advance of your trip as you may need a series of vaccinations. Please ensure that you indicate that you will be traveling to Tanzania on safari. Your doctor will be able to suggest which vaccinations and medications are advisable. Anti-malarial medication is strongly recommended and should be discussed during your doctor’s visit.  All vaccinations are voluntary for entry into Tanzania except for the Yellow Fever vaccination. If you are entering Tanzania from Yellow Fever infected countries such as Kenya, Uganda,  Ethiopia, or Rwanda, you will be required to show a Yellow Fever Vaccination Certificate  upon arrival in Tanzania. Please ensure you carry this Certificate with your passport. If you  are entering Tanzania from Europe, you will not be required to show a Yellow Fever  Vaccination Certificate.  Covid-19 Entry Requirement in Tanzania   All travelers (incl. children) must complete a Travelers Surveillance Form, to be submitted  within 24 hrs. before arrival. Upon submission, you will receive a Unique Health Code which  will be requested during primary screening.  Fully vaccinated travelers no longer need to take a PCR test and must show a vaccination  certificate with a QR code upon arrival. Vaccines must have been approved for use by the  Republic of Tanzania and the WHO. Unvaccinated travelers (5yrs and above) are required to take a PCR test taken 72 hrs. before  arrival in Tanzania. Travelers who were infected and recovered from COVID-19 shall be  required to submit proof of recovering from the disease obtained from Authorized Medical  personnel upon arrival to Tanzania.  All departing travelers are advised to seek up to date information from their airline and  homecountry regarding re-entry requirements.  Safety and Security  Safety advice is issued by most national governments and updated regularly and we would suggest that all travelers check the appropriate website for updates both prior to booking, and again prior to traveling. (Traveling to countries against your own government's advice can adversely affect the validity of certain travel insurance policies.) Brilliant Adventures and   Safaris strongly advises all travelers to use a money belt or neck wallet for the safekeeping  of cash, passport, airline tickets, and any other valuables. Please leave other valuables, such  as jewelry at home. Most accommodations provide safety deposit boxes, an excellent way of storing your valuables. We also advise you to keep a photocopy of yourpassport, separate from your actual passport, when you travel.  Brilliant Adventures and Safaris reserves the right to make changes to, or even cancel, any part of the planned trip if in their opinion safety and security concerns deem this necessary. Your driver-guide will accompany you throughout your safari and it is important that you always follow his instructions, in the interests of safety. If you spend time in Arusha, you will find that most Tanzanians are friendly and helpful, but as in most cities in any part of the world, you should exercise caution. Carrying expensive cameras or jewelry or waving large amounts of cash around, is always a bad idea and will invariably attract unwanted attention. Be aware of people approaching you and  trying to 'befriend' you: often these people are con-men and you should be polite but firm in saying'no' to them. We would strongly advise using taxis after dark for trips to restaurants  or other night-time trips and would urge you to keep to the main streets during the  daytime.We also advise that you travel in small groups, wherever possible. In the unlikely  event that you find yourself in an area where a political protest or demonstration is taking place, we would advise you to leave the area immediately, as these can turn violent or  provoke counter-demonstrations or reactions from the police.  Please note that you should use your own judgment when choosing activities or excursions which do not form part of the trip you have booked with us. We can offer your assistancein  choosing how to spend your free time, but neither Brilliant Adventures and Safaris norany of  its representatives can provide any guarantee about the safety or suitability of any activities or excursions, nor about the operators who organize these. As in all countries, taking photos  of police stations, border crossings, immigration controls, army barracks, military personnel or checkpoints, airports or political demonstrations is never a good idea, often illegal, and  very likely to land you in trouble with the authorities. Swimming, snorkeling, and other water-based activities are always undertaken at your ownrisk.
