We are Africa Travel Bureau — a dedicated team of travel professionals with over three decades of experience crafting exceptional journeys across Tanzania and East Africa. Based in Arusha, the heart of Tanzania’s safari circuit, we operate from our own offices with a passionate team of both locals and expatriates. This unique blend of perspectives allows us to combine deep cultural knowledge with an international standard of service.
Our mission is simple yet powerful: to create journeys that go beyond sightseeing and immerse travelers in the true essence of Tanzania. From the vast savannahs of the Serengeti to the tranquil shores of Zanzibar, we ensure every detail is handled with precision, so our guests can focus on what matters most — experiencing the magic of Africa.
We are not just tour operators; we are storytellers, conservation advocates, and ambassadors for sustainable travel. By working closely with trusted guides, local communities, and conservation projects, we ensure that every journey supports the preservation of Tanzania’s natural and cultural heritage.
We believe travel should be transformative — for the traveler, the communities visited, and the environment that sustains us all. That’s why we design our trips with three guiding principles: authenticity, quality, and responsibility.
Authenticity: We connect you with the real Tanzania — its people, traditions, wildlife, and landscapes. Every itinerary is enriched with experiences that can’t be found in a guidebook, from sharing stories around a campfire to visiting hidden corners of the national parks.
Quality: We work with professional private guides, well-maintained private jeeps, and handpicked accommodations that meet our high standards for comfort and service. Every trip is meticulously planned to be seamless, stress-free, and unforgettable.
Responsibility: We protect our travel agent partners by not listing our services on public travel search engines and by offering tailored pricing based on their itineraries. We also commit to sustainable practices that benefit local communities and preserve wildlife habitats for future generations.
We travel this way because we believe each journey should not only be extraordinary for the traveler but also meaningful for the places and people visited. This is the heart of Africa Travel Bureau — creating journeys that inspire, connect, and leave a lasting positive impact.
Joseph David and Paul, as directors of Africa Travel Bureau, combine strategic vision and operational expertise to ensure professionalism, innovation, and excellence. Joseph focuses on leadership and stakeholder engagement, while Paul manages safari logistics and guest relations.
