About me

Gideon Safaris Company is a safari company owned and operated by local Tanzanians, with representatives all over the world. We are committed to providing our guests with an authentic and lasting experience in the lands where our families have resided for generations.

Tanzania is a land of natural and resonating beauty and strength, where respect for nature is essential and life-changing wonders are an everyday experience. Gideon Safaris drivers and guides are locals who love their country and know the lands for all that they are.

They are knowledgeable, insightful, resourceful, and charismatic; to them, Tanzania is not just a tourist destination, it is their home and heritage. Each tour is hand-crafted for the customer so that they receive exactly what they want and more. Gideon Safaris Company aims to not only enhance the lives of those traveling to Tanzania, but also the lives of those living within it.

My safari travel style: Middle of the road—I tend to stay in the main camps and lodges. It suits my budget and my preference for creature comforts, such as electricity and hot water.
