Karibu — welcome to our family

A family-run, locally owned safari company from the foothills of Kilimanjaro.

Our story

The original bespoke Tanzanian safari providers

Golden Kit Tours & Safaris is proudly family-run and owned by Tanzanians who grew up in this landscape. What began as a small family venture in the foothills of Kilimanjaro has grown into a team of more than fifty guides, cooks, porters and health specialists — but the way we work has not changed.

We still plan every trip personally. We still answer the phone ourselves. And we still believe the best safari is the one shaped around the traveller, not around a brochure.

Whether you are a solo traveller seeking solitude, a couple in search of romance, a family eager for time together, or a corporate group of a hundred — we have you covered.

“From Kilimanjaro’s heights to safaris’ lights, Golden Kit guides your delights.”
