African Scenic Safaris

Based in Moshi

Established Moshi-based Tanzania operator founded 2009 with 15+ years of continuous operation, focused on northern-circuit safaris (Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire, Lake Manyara) and Kilimanjaro climbing. Publicly declares a TripAdvisor 5-star Certificate of Excellence, one of the earlier Moshi operators to earn that recognition. Distinctive positioning: walking safaris on the northern circuit — a less-common offering than standard game drives — and Kilimanjaro climbs with proper acclimatisation-focused itineraries. Multilingual team of native Tanzanian guides. Handles the full spectrum from budget camping through mid-range lodge safaris. Based centrally in Moshi, well-positioned for travellers combining Kilimanjaro climbs with a post-summit wildlife safari in the same trip. English and Swahili guide team.

Where African Scenic Safaris operates

African Scenic Safaris runs trips across 5 destinations in Tanzania, covering the Northern Circuit and Kilimanjaro Region. Each park has its own character — from open savannas and forested escarpments to coastal reefs — and African Scenic Safaris tailors itineraries around what you most want to see.

  • Serengeti · Northern Circuit — Africa's greatest wildlife arena — year-round big five safaris and the legendary Great Migration.
  • Ngorongoro · Northern Circuit — The world's largest intact volcanic caldera — a natural enclosure for lions, elephants, and the rare black rhino.
  • Tarangire · Northern Circuit — Tanzania's elephant capital — vast herds gather around the Tarangire River each dry season.
  • Lake Manyara · Northern Circuit — A compact, diverse park famous for tree-climbing lions, flamingos, and dramatic rift valley scenery.
  • Kilimanjaro · Kilimanjaro Region — Climb Africa's highest peak — a world-class trekking challenge accessible to determined non-technical climbers.

This operator specialises in wildlife safari, mountain trekking, and walking safari. Trips can be combined into a single multi-stop itinerary or booked as standalone experiences.

  • Wildlife Safari — The classic East African experience — tracking lions, elephants, leopards, and the full Big Five across Tanzania's vast savannas and woodlands.
  • Mountain Trekking — From Kilimanjaro's Uhuru Peak — the highest point in Africa at 5,895m — to Mount Meru, the Usambaras, and the forest trails of Udzungwa, Tanzania offers a spectrum of trekking experiences for every level.
  • Walking Safari — Experience Africa at ground level — walking safaris with armed rangers and professional field guides reveal the bush in ways that no vehicle ever can.

★★★★★

A spectacular trip of a lifetime. The trip far exceeded all of our expectations and we were sad to see it end. Amanda was outstanding at helping us plan — super responsive to all questions and happy to tailor the trip to our group.

TripAdvisor Reviewer
★★★★★

We were especially happy to work with a well-run company that is local, since more resources stay in Tanzania. African Scenic is run by a husband-and-wife team living in Moshi, the guides are professional and trustworthy, and the price was very competitive.

TripAdvisor Reviewer
★★★★★

Family, owner-run business out of Moshi offering camping safaris, private safaris, lodge safaris and ethical Kilimanjaro climbs. Rated 5/5 across dozens of reviews — professional, expert, and very responsive.
