A Legacy of Conservation
Tanzania's safari history dates back to the early 1920s when Serengeti was first designated as a partial game reserve. The region's commitment to wildlife conservation has made it one of Africa's most successful conservation stories.
The word 'Safari' itself originates from the Swahili word meaning 'journey,' and Tanzania has been pioneering sustainable wildlife tourism for over a century. From the early expeditions of famous conservationists to today's modern eco-tourism, Tanzania continues to set the standard for authentic African safari experiences.
