Sharubu creates private Tanzania safari itineraries with personal support, handpicked lodges, and local expertise on the ground. From the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater to Tarangire and Lake Manyara, every trip is built around your pace, your interests, and your budget.

Tanzania safari essentials

What is the best time for a Tanzania safari? Tanzania is strong year-round, but the best timing depends on whether you prioritise migration, dry-season wildlife, or lower-season value.
Do you offer private Tanzania safaris? Yes. Sharubu focuses on private tailor-made Tanzania safaris rather than one-size-fits-all group departures.

An unforgettable personalised safari in Arusha. We travelled with Ghalilu as an excellent tour guide during 10 days around different National Parks in Tanzania — Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti. He made us see plenty of animals, knew the names of all the birds we spotted, and was very respectful towards all animals. A companion with whom you can have brilliant conversations. I can truly recommend him for your safari!

We had the pleasure of having this guide with us for almost a week on our safari in Tanzania, and the experience exceeded all expectations. He was incredibly engaged, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our trip special. His ability to communicate was excellent, and he always made sure everyone felt included and comfortable. What truly stood out was his expertise and intuition — an impressive ability to find wildlife without relying on radio communication, which made the experience feel even more authentic and unique. His flexibility and thoughtfulness ensured that every day was adapted to our interests and needs. He is not only highly knowledgeable but also warm, considerate, and professional.

Ghalilu was the best guide we could have asked for! Our biggest wish was to see the Big Five and witness the migration — and he truly went above and beyond to make that happen. He was always friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He shared fascinating insights about the animals and their surroundings, yet at the same time remained pleasantly unobtrusive — a rare and much-appreciated balance. We spent five days together, and it felt consistently relaxed, private, and perfectly tailored to us. Most importantly, we were lucky enough to see some truly extraordinary wildlife. An unforgettable experience — thank you, Ghalilu!

We spent 13 days traveling with Khalilu in Tanzania. It was a fantastic experience, and he took excellent care of us as a family. His knowledge of the country, its people, animals, and plants was inexhaustible. We would do it again in a heartbeat!

Together with our guide Ghalilu, we visited various places in Tanzania, including Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and Lake Manyara National Park. Throughout the trip, Ghalilu enriched our game drives with fascinating insights into the wildlife, flora, and local culture. Thanks to his extensive knowledge and keen eye for detail, we were able to have unique encounters with wildlife. He was always respectful toward all animals. We greatly appreciated his pleasant, calm, and open manner. Even though wildlife is unpredictable and the roads were more difficult to navigate due to the rainy season, we felt safe and well taken care of at all times. All in all, we had a wonderful vacation that left nothing to be desired. We wholeheartedly recommend a trip with Ghalilu.

Wir haben als Familie mit 3 Kinder im Alter von 10 und 11 Jahren 4 Tage mit Halilu Muniss verbracht und die Zeit insbesondere auch dank Halilu äusserst genossen. Er hat uns sehr einfühlsam begleitet und dabei auch den Respekt vor der Natur und ihrer Schönheit gelehrt. Wir können Halilu wärmstens empfehlen.

We spent 13 days in Tanzania with Khalilo. He is one of the best Guids we have ever had and has responded to every wish. His knowledge of the animals, plants and the whole country is also top. Our children (15 and 17) were also delighted. Thank you for the great experiences

We did an absolutely amazing trip with Khalilu for our honeymoon in June 2025. We had an absolutely outstanding safari experience thanks to our incredible driver and guide. His knowledge of the wildlife and the area was truly exceptional — we saw an amazing variety of animals, many of them up close, which made the experience unforgettable. What impressed us even more was the way he balanced these close encounters with deep respect for the animals. He always ensured we could observe them in their natural habitat without disturbing them, which we deeply appreciated.

On top of that, when our luggage was lost, he went above and beyond to personally follow up and make sure we got it back as quickly as possible. This level of care and dedication is rare and made a stressful situation so much easier for us.

We cannot recommend him highly enough — he truly made our safari special in every possible way.

Khalilu turned our safari into a lifelong memory. Let's be honest — spending 10 days in a Jeep with a complete stranger, in close quarters, day in and day out, is not something that sounds natural at first. But that's exactly what makes Khalilu so extraordinary: within the first day, he stopped being our guide and became a true friend.

We traveled as a family — my wife, our 10-year-old daughter, and myself — and Khalilu made every single one of us feel completely at ease. His warm personality, his patience, and his genuine passion for the wildlife and the land were infectious from the very beginning.

On the professional side, there is simply nothing to criticize. Khalilu's knowledge of animals, behavior, habitats, and tracks is outstanding. He spotted things we would have driven past without a second glance. And the Big Five? We saw all of them — every single one. That doesn't happen by luck. It happens because of preparation, instinct, and an exceptional network.

What truly set Khalilu apart was how respected and well-connected he is among the other guides. Time and again, we witnessed fellow guides sharing tips with him — where a leopard had been spotted, where a lion pride was resting — and Khalilu always made sure we were in the right place at the right time. That kind of trust between professionals is earned, not given.

If you are looking for a guide who combines deep expertise, genuine warmth, and an incredible network — look no further. Book Khalilu. You won't just have a great safari. You'll come home with a friend.

I had the chance to go on a safari with Khalilu and it was honestly amazing.
He is so passionate and his knowledge of birds and wildlife is incredible, he shared so much information with us and every sighting came with incredibly enriching information so it was really exciting !
What I also really appreciated is how he interacts with people ! He is attentive, patient, he really listens and takes the time to answer every question, and always does his best to make sure you have the best experience possible.
And honestly, he knows all the best spots to find animals, we saw so much thanks to him!
I 100% recommend going on a safari with him, you won’t regret it and I can’t wait to do it again!
Cheers from France 🇫🇷

My mom and me experienced an amazing time on our 6-day-trip with our guide and driver Khalilu from Arusha to Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti.

His knowledge and expertise on wildlife in Tanzania (including animals, plants, landscape and history) was outstanding and very informative throughout the whole journey. He made sure we got the very best out of our daily tours, accommodated our wishes and enabled us to actually complete the "Big Five" during our adventure, all while highly respecting the animals space and the sanctuality of nature. His English was very good and he even made a great effort to translate most information into German so my mom understood everything as well.

Khalilu was very helpful throughout our whole trip, even managed to purchase highly needed medication for my mother and he made sure our ongoing travels were save and successful.

I recommended Khalilu to my best friend for her honeymoon and she too had the same outstanding experience. Asante sana, for making our stay in Tanzania unforgettable.
