At Calabash Adventures Ltd, a reputable Tanzanian local tour operator, we understand the importance of providing unforgettable safari experiences while maintaining the highest standards of service, comfort, and safety. If you are a travel agent or tour operator looking to expand your portfolio with authentic, tailor-made Tanzanian safaris, we invite you to explore the benefits of partnering with Calabash Adventures Ltd.

Our mission is simple: to deliver exceptional safari adventures across Tanzania’s most iconic destinations — including Marangu, Lake Manyara, Serengeti National Park (covering the Mara River and Seronera areas), the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and the unique landscapes of Western Tanzania — all while ensuring our clients’ unique needs are met, especially those of elderly and discerning travelers.

Experience and Reputation You Can Trust

Calabash Adventures Ltd has been a leading Tanzania local tour operator and safari tour operator in Tanzania for over 20 years. With two decades of hands-on experience, we have built a reputation for reliability, authenticity, and excellence. Our team is comprised of highly knowledgeable local guides and safari experts who are passionate about sharing Tanzania’s breathtaking landscapes, rich wildlife, and diverse cultures.

We are proud members of several reputable travel associations and wildlife conservation networks, underscoring our commitment to quality and responsible tourism. Our strong track record is reflected in glowing reviews and repeat business from clients worldwide.

Unique Safaris in Western Tanzania and Combination Itineraries

While Northern Tanzania remains a favorite for many, Calabash Adventures Ltd offers exclusive access to the less-traveled, stunning wilderness areas of Western Tanzania. Our unique Western Tanzania safaris explore the pristine Mahale Mountains, home to rare chimpanzee tracking experiences, and the expansive Katavi National Park, where visitors can witness large herds of buffalo and diverse predator populations in a truly off-the-beaten-path setting.

For agents seeking to offer truly distinctive journeys, we also specialize in combination safaris that blend the best of Western and Northern Tanzania. These itineraries allow travelers to experience a wider range of ecosystems and wildlife, from the chimpanzees of Mahale to the spectacular Serengeti migration and the grandeur of Ngorongoro Crater.

Comprehensive and Customizable Itineraries

Our standard 7-night safari itinerary is thoughtfully designed to cover the best of Tanzania’s northern circuit. Guests explore the lush slopes of Marangu, enjoy the birdlife and elephants at Lake Manyara, witness the thrilling wildebeest migration at the Mara River crossing in the Serengeti, soak in the expansive savannahs of Seronera, and marvel at the unique ecosystem of the Ngorongoro Crater.

We recognize that every traveler is unique, and we place great emphasis on customizing our safaris to meet specific preferences and needs. This is particularly important when catering to elderly travelers who may require a more relaxed pace, accessible accommodations, and personalized services. Our flexible itineraries allow travel agents to tailor experiences that balance adventure with comfort and convenience.

Unusual and Exclusive Safari Packages for Travel Agents Only

Calabash Adventures Ltd prides itself on creating unusual and exclusive safari packages that stand out in the market. From private cultural encounters with local tribes to night game drives in select parks, and photographic safaris led by expert guides, we craft itineraries that go beyond the ordinary.

Importantly, these tailor-made safaris are developed exclusively for travel agents. We do not market or sell these unique packages directly to the public, ensuring you have access to distinctive offerings that give your clients a competitive edge.

Farm Trips and Package Development for Travel Agents

To further support our valued travel agent partners, Calabash Adventures Ltd offers exclusive farm trips. These immersive visits allow agents to experience firsthand the beauty and diversity of Tanzanian safaris, including the rural and agricultural aspects that many travelers find fascinating.

Beyond the farm trips, we actively assist travel agents in developing their own customized safari packages and pricing structures. This collaborative approach enables agents to specialize in selling unique, tailor-made experiences backed by our expert support and Tanzania local tour operator knowledge, enhancing their competitive positioning in the market.

Comfortable Accommodations and Safe Transportation

Calabash Adventures Ltd carefully selects lodges, tented camps, and hotels that provide not only comfort but also an authentic connection to the environment. We prioritize accommodations that offer accessible facilities and are mindful of the comfort requirements of older guests.

Transportation is another cornerstone of our service. Our fleet of modern, well-maintained safari vehicles are equipped with ample space, reclining seats, and large windows for game viewing. Safety is paramount, and our drivers are highly trained and experienced in navigating Tanzania’s roads and safari terrains. Whether the journey involves long drives or short transfers, we strive to make travel between destinations as smooth and enjoyable as the safari itself.

Competitive Pricing and Attractive Commissions for Agents

We understand that as a travel agent, profitability and clear pricing structures are essential. Calabash Adventures Ltd offers highly competitive rates that deliver excellent value to clients while providing generous commission structures exclusively to our agent partners.

Our pricing includes accommodations, transportation, park fees, guiding services, and most meals, making it easy for agents to present all-inclusive packages without hidden costs. Special rates and discounts are available for group bookings and early confirmations, helping you maximize your margins and offer attractive deals.

Commitment to Safety and Health

The safety and well-being of our guests is our highest priority. We implement stringent safety protocols, including vehicle maintenance, emergency procedures, and staff training in first aid and emergency response.

Our guides carry first aid kits and maintain close communication with medical facilities throughout the safari circuit. For elderly or health-sensitive travelers, we can coordinate with medical providers and suggest travel insurance options to ensure peace of mind throughout the journey.
