African Safaris on a Personal Level      Serengeti – Kilimanjaro – Zanzibar

We have fun saying, “We sold everything but our 3 kids and moved to Africa.” It has been an incredible adventure! We are thrilled to share the wonder and beauty that Tanzania has to offer: the wildlife, the people, the mountains, the beaches, and so much more. After more than 12 years living in Africa, we have fallen in love with the scenery, animals, and especially the people. We know you will too!

At Dashir, there is no middleman or agent – we communicate directly with our guests and create a personal customized itinerary. All our safaris are private; you make your own group from 1 to 12 people, then enjoy the amazing safari parks with your own 4×4 vehicle and professional driver-guide.

We are unique in our passion for our guests to share personal encounters with local people in everyday life, through our cultural-scenic walking adventures.

So, go ahead and learn more on our website, and then drop us an email to start the conversation about your dream safari adventure to Africa. Can’t wait to hear from you!

Safari and Dashir adventures are extremely low-risk in this season of COVID-19 – much safer than where most of you live and work. Being outdoors in nature during the day, often even at meal times, is a big help. There are strict distancing and sanitizing protocols in place for the lodges, drivers, and vehicles. Currently, Tanzania is open to guests, with no quarantine for those who pass screening at the airport. We are open and ready for you!

“THE BEST TRAVEL EXPERIENCE WE HAVE EVER HAD and my wife and I travel a lot. I need to stop here and draw a clear line between all the other reviews I have done in the past and this one, as Dashir, was on a completely separate scale.” … read more on TripAdvisor
