About Tawny Expedition
Our Story
Rooted in the heart of Arusha, inspired by the golden plains of the Serengeti, we are on a mission to share the magic of Tanzania with the world.
Who We Are
Our Story
Tawny Expedition was born from a deep love for Tanzania's breathtaking wilderness and a passion for sharing it with the world. Founded in the heart of Arusha, the safari capital of East Africa, we are a locally owned and operated safari company dedicated to creating authentic, unforgettable wildlife experiences.
Our name ‘Tawny’ reflects the golden-tawny landscapes of the Serengeti that first inspired our journey. What started as a small team of passionate guides has grown into a full-service expedition company, trusted by travelers from over 30 countries.
We believe that every safari should be more than just a trip. It should be a life-changing encounter with nature, culture, and the raw beauty of East Africa.
