Lapwings Company Ltd

Based in Arusha

Arusha-based African safari specialist with 20+ years running tailor-made northern-circuit safaris across the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, and Lake Manyara, plus Kilimanjaro treks and Zanzibar beach extensions. Comfortable pop-top LandCruisers, expert local driver-guides, and a strong record of repeat guests (rated 4.9/5 across 39 TripAdvisor reviews). English- and Italian-speaking team.

Where Lapwings Company Ltd operates

Lapwings Company Ltd runs trips across 7 destinations in Tanzania, covering the Northern Circuit, Kilimanjaro Region, Arusha Region, and Zanzibar Archipelago. Each park has its own character — from open savannas and forested escarpments to coastal reefs — and Lapwings Company Ltd 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.
  • Arusha National Park · Arusha Region — Tanzania's safari capital — the gateway to Kilimanjaro, Serengeti, and the entire northern circuit.
  • Zanzibar · Zanzibar Archipelago — Turquoise waters, spice farms, and a UNESCO World Heritage Stone Town — Tanzania's island paradise.

What you can do with Lapwings Company Ltd

This operator specialises in wildlife safari, mountain trekking, cultural tours, beach & island, and photography tours. 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.
  • 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.
  • Photography Tours — Tanzania's combination of extraordinary wildlife density, dramatic landscapes, and golden dry-season light makes it one of the world's top photography safari destinations.
