How to book your trip

Dear customers, we have small groups, so space is limited. Please we ask you to call us as early as possible to ensure space is available on your desired departure date.Usually many clients book about six months or a year in advance.

 

Call us at +255 717 33 20 24 or +255 766 15 80 79 to reserve your space.

 

Trip extensions require additional minimum deposit of 20% of the per person extension price.

 

Visa and MasterCard are accepted for your trip deposit.

 

Single accommodations

Each trip has a single accommodations fee for those traveling without a companion. However, if you are traveling alone and would like to share a room, every effort will be made to match you with a roommate. We will invoice you for the single accommodations initially, and delete the charge if you are matched with a roommate.
