Kanuth Adventure Safaris

Based in Dar es Salaam

Dar es Salaam-based 100% locally-owned operator running since the early 2000s, TATO-listed and specialising in complete Tanzania coverage from a southern base. Package portfolio covers all four Tanzania circuits — northern (Serengeti + Ngorongoro), southern (Ruaha, Mikumi, Udzungwa mountain trekking, Iringa Isimila Stone Age site), western (Katavi, Mahale, Gombe) — plus Zanzibar beach extensions, hot-air ballooning and cultural programmes with Maasai and Hadzabe communities. Distinctive angle: bundles adventure add-ons (ballooning, hiking, water sports) with the wildlife itinerary rather than treating them as separate bookings. Runs a Child Care community project as part of their operations.

Where Kanuth Adventure Safaris operates

Kanuth Adventure Safaris runs trips across 10 destinations in Tanzania, covering the Northern Circuit, Western Tanzania, Southern Circuit, Southern Highlands, and Zanzibar Archipelago. Each park has its own character — from open savannas and forested escarpments to coastal reefs — and Kanuth Adventure Safaris tailors itineraries around what you most want to see.

  • Ngorongoro · Northern Circuit — The world's largest intact volcanic caldera — a natural enclosure for lions, elephants, and the rare black rhino.
  • Gombe · Western Tanzania — Jane Goodall's chimpanzee research site — the world's most famous chimp habitat on Lake Tanganyika.
  • Mahale Mountains · Western Tanzania — Chimpanzee trekking on the shores of Lake Tanganyika — one of the most intimate wildlife encounters in Africa.
  • Mikumi · Southern Circuit — Tanzania's most accessible national park — big five game viewing just 4 hours from Dar es Salaam.
  • Udzungwa Mountains · Southern Highlands — A biodiversity hotspot in Tanzania's southern highlands — waterfalls, endemic primates, and rewarding forest hikes.
  • Zanzibar · Zanzibar Archipelago — Turquoise waters, spice farms, and a UNESCO World Heritage Stone Town — Tanzania's island paradise.
  • Serengeti · Northern Circuit — Africa's greatest wildlife arena — year-round big five safaris and the legendary Great Migration.
  • Ruaha · Southern Circuit — Tanzania's largest national park — remote, wild, and home to Africa's biggest population of wild dogs.
  • Iringa · Southern Highlands — A cool highland town with Ruaha National Park on the doorstep and fascinating ancient rock art in the hills.
  • Katavi · Western Tanzania — Tanzania's wildest secret — massive hippo pools, enormous buffalo herds, and virtually no other tourists.

What you can do with Kanuth Adventure Safaris

This operator specialises in wildlife safari, mountain trekking, cultural tours, walking safari, beach & island, and chimpanzee trekking. 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.
  • Cultural Tours — Tanzania's cultural fabric is one of its most underrated attractions — over 120 ethnic groups, a rich Swahili coastal heritage, Maasai and Hadzabe communities, medieval sultanate ruins, and some of East Africa's most vibrant markets and arts scenes.
  • 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.
  • Beach & Island — Tanzania's Indian Ocean coastline and islands deliver some of the finest tropical beach experiences in Africa — turquoise water, white sand, Swahili history, and excellent snorkelling just offshore.
  • Chimpanzee Trekking — Track habituated wild chimpanzees through the forest — an intimate wildlife encounter unlike any other.

Vumi and Eric are the best! Vumi was so incredible and helpful and very knowledgeable. He answered all of our questions about the parks and the animals, and was in the loop with all the other drivers, radioing over when we saw something. I had the most fun time with Kanuth and I really feel like we had the absolute best safari experience for a budget price.

Amazing safari in Mikumi. Impeccable service and reliability — an excellent safari company. I have been living in Dar es Salaam for 4 years and this was by far the best safari experience I have had.
