Safaris • Kilimanjaro • Tanzania
Authentic safari and mountain adventures, thoughtfully designed around you and guided by people who know Tanzania from the ground up.
The Kori Way
Kori Safari & Climbing Tours was founded with one simple goal: to connect travellers with the raw, unspoiled beauty of Tanzania.
We are a team of certified guides, local experts and adventure enthusiasts based in Arusha. We don't sell trips from a brochure — we design each journey around the people taking it, then guide it ourselves, from the airport to the summit or the last game drive.
Featured safaris
Thoughtfully designed safari experiences across Tanzania. Every one can be adjusted to your dates, pace and budget.
Most Popular
A compact northern circuit — Tarangire's elephants, the Serengeti plains and the Ngorongoro Crater — with tented lodges and a private 4×4.
Seven days across the four great northern parks, with time to slow down in the Serengeti and watch the light change.
Shorter drives, family-friendly camps and guides who know how to keep young explorers curious from the first game drive.
Seasonal
Timed and routed around the herds — river crossings, calving plains or the northern woodlands, depending on the season you travel.
Luxury
Wildlife adventure with barefoot island luxury: the northern parks first, then a flight to Zanzibar's beaches.
Public campsites, a camp cook and the same wildlife as everyone else — the most affordable way to see the northern circuit properly.
Where to go
From the endless plains of the Serengeti to the summit of Kilimanjaro and the beaches of Zanzibar.
Endless plains, big cats and the Great Migration moving through the year.
Dense game on the crater floor, including black rhino and the Big Five.
Renowned for its large elephant herds and iconic baobab trees.
A compact park beneath the Rift Valley escarpment — birdlife and forest.
5,895 m. Six routes, seven days, one summit sunrise.
A 3–4 day climb inside Arusha National Park, with wildlife on the lower slopes.
Stone Town, spice farms and beaches that reward doing nothing.
Formerly Selous — one of Africa's largest protected areas.
Tanzania's largest national park, best visited June to October.
Mount Kilimanjaro · 5,895 m
Climb Kilimanjaro with experienced guides and carefully planned mountain adventures. Six routes, one summit sunrise — we'll help you choose the right way up.
Approaches from the west across the Shira Plateau. Fewer trekkers, superb scenery and a profile that gives your body time to adjust.
Route detailsThe 'Whiskey Route' — a scenic, popular climb with a classic climb-high-sleep-low day past Lava Tower and the Barranco Wall.
Route detailsThe only route with hut accommodation. Gentler gradients and the same path up and down; best with an extra acclimatisation day.
Route detailsStarts near the Kenyan border on the drier northern side — quieter trails, a wilderness feel and a good choice in the rainy months.
Route detailsThe longest route on Kilimanjaro, circling the quiet northern slopes. Excellent acclimatisation and views nobody else gets.
Route detailsShort, steep and direct. For experienced, well-acclimatised trekkers who want the most demanding line to the summit.
Route detailsThe difference
Six things we hold ourselves to on every journey.
We live where you're travelling. Our guides know the parks, the seasons and the quiet corners that don't appear on maps.
No two itineraries are alike — like the spots on a leopard's coat. We build yours around your interests, pace and budget.
Experienced guides, well-maintained 4×4 vehicles and certified mountain equipment. On Kilimanjaro, twice-daily health checks.
One point of contact from your first message to your flight home, reachable on WhatsApp throughout your trip.
Travel that supports local communities and respects the wild places that make Tanzania what it is.
Airport transfers, park fees, permits and camps arranged for you. You bring the curiosity; we handle the logistics.
How it works
Use the planner or WhatsApp us. Where, when, who's coming, and what a perfect day looks like to you.
You receive a proposed itinerary with camps, routes and timing that make sense for the season.
Swap a lodge, add a balloon flight, slow the pace. We adjust until it feels exactly right.
Your guide meets you at the airport. From there, everything is taken care of.

Responsible travel
Sustainable travel that supports local communities is part of how Kori was founded, not an add-on. Here is what that means in practice.
Park fees on every itinerary fund the protection of Tanzania's wildlife and wilderness. We follow park rules on distance, noise and off-road driving.
Cultural visits are arranged with the communities themselves, on their terms, so the benefit stays where the welcome comes from.
Our guides, drivers, cooks and porters are Tanzanian. Fair treatment of mountain crews is a condition of every climb we run.
Refillable water in the vehicle, waste carried out of the parks and mountain, and camps chosen with their footprint in mind.
Travel journal
The herds never stop moving. Here is where they usually are through the year — and what that means for choosing your dates.

Lemosho, Machame, Marangu, Rongai, Northern Circuit or Umbwe — the differences that actually matter for your summit night.
Serengeti and Ngorongoro are famous for good reason, but Ruaha and Nyerere offer something the north cannot: solitude.
Neutral colours, a good pair of binoculars and less luggage than you think. A practical list from our guides.
