About Northern Masailand Safaris
I was born and raised in a nomadic pastoralist Maasai community in the wilds of Northern Tanzania and, in time, earned the right to call myself a Maasai Warrior. My heritage instilled in me a deep knowledge, understanding, and love for this wondrous land. Now, as owner and manager of Northern Masailand Safaris, I have the privilege of sharing this intimate understanding of the land and its people with my Travelers/ Clients. I established Northern Masailand forward to welcoming you to Tanzania! Northern Masailand Safaris, is an African wildlife safari is a vacation of a lifetime. Whether you are on foot, or just listening to the early morning dawn chorus, you will discover a magic that no other continent can offer. We at Northenzone Masailand Safaris go that extra mile to ensure that you to feel the same magic that so many of our clients have experienced before. Tanzania has whatever you are dreaming about – be it tropical islands, beaches or climbing the highest.
About our safari vehicles
Developed and more extensive: We amplified and augmented the body of the vehicles to permit more space to move around and to get the best photographic edges without "knocking" into one another. In spite of the fact that our vehicles are intended to convey 6 travelers we will just assemble six visitors in one vehicle if this is asked for keeping in mind the end goal to save money on expense. Typically we will just convey four visitors for each expanded vehicle. - Lager windows: We made every one of the windows in the vehicle as huge as will potentially fit. What's more, on the off chance that we might, we be able to would make the whole body out of glass...we are as yet taking a shot at that outline, observe

We had 14 days safari with Northern Masailand Safaris. From the pick up the airport things went smoothly! We had 8 days in central Serengeti, southern Serengeti and Northern Serengeti, We are more than happy to witness the head of wildebeest migration crossing the Mara River! Henry had promised us to witness the Migration! Our luxury tented camps with the luxury Lodges make 14 days in Tanzania unforgettable and life time memories! We can't say enough about this tour company owned by young Maasai man name Henry (Olanana) Maasai name that is beyond our expectations!

We recommend this locally owned company to everyone who wishes to go to safari and at the same time save many lives of Maasai Community, Northern Masailand Safaris give back to community through a non profit organisation named Maasai Children Education Centre. We highly recommend this company.

Our trip was truly the trip of a lifetime. We fell so in love with Tanzania and everything about our stay was unbelievable. The hotels and lodges were amazing and everything went so smoothly. All hotel and lodging staff were wonderfully accommodating. We could not have planned a trip so well-organized and fun without Doris through her company Northern Masailand Safaris. She is outstanding and did a great job for us. Thank you from our hearts.

I book with Northern Masailand Safaris, because Henry who organised my trip was very promt to answer all questions and reply all my emails on time.
This is the 4th trip I have booked with this company. Every time Henry has surpassed all expectations. The safari Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater was tremendous. This was a life memory list for me and I can't believe what a wonderful time I had. Doris and Ryan we're great, kind, helpful and very professional, I can't thank them enough.

We had enjoyed Zanzibar Island for another 5 days. It's like paradise, swimming with whale sharks speechless.
Thank you Henry for organising this.

Tanzania has to be one of the most photogenic places in the world. Everything seemed camera-ready. Henry was the first face we saw as we exited the airport which immediately made us feel safe and at home. The greenery that followed us as we drove to Arusha was surreal. I had to ask for us to stop so that I could try and capture how perfectly the sun reflected on the scene. I had booked a photographic safari, I got more than I bargained for. I got take a picture of the big five up close thanks to my guide and the sturdiness of the war-bus we were in. He would wake us up early in the morning to capture the dew as it was still fresh: he knew exactly where the endangered birds were, that I wanted to capture just in case they go extinct.
The guide was experienced and has almost animalistic instincts as he knew when and where the animals were. I also had the privilege of shooting Masai women and children as they went about their busy day. When my day came to leave I didn't want to leave this sanctuary. I think Henry sensed this and came to give us a send of dinner. I am already looking forward to my next trip.

Asante Sana Northern Masailand safaris.

They definitely need to be ranked as a number 1 tour company in the East African region. My fiancee and I did a 12 days safari in Tanzania.
From the moment we checked in we were basically treated like the MVPs. They are services are just exceptional. We went to their office for debriefing and what an excellent staff they have. They have the whole team working on making sure your trip would be as pleasant as possible without any problems.
I wanted to have a traditional wedding as a surprise gift to my fiancee and NMLS went above and beyond to make this day a memorable one. They were so good at keeping this secret and the main attraction for the ceremony made the surprise even more magical.
What can I say about our driver Edward?

From the second I reached out to Northern Masailand Safaris to help with our plans, everything was very easy, smooth, and professional. Henry did a wonderful work figuring out what kind of camps we wanted and what our priorities were and the combination of our two camps was a really good choice for us - and very different experiences.

Furthermore, when we got to each camp, everything was flawlessly ready and set up for us. Asante!!

Safety, fun, security, wildlife, great food, amazing service, knowledgeable guides, spectacular views, rhinos, hippos, elephants, lions, giraffes, baboons, warthogs, antelope, luxurious camping, friendly people, clean water, timely activities, adventure.

These are just a few words that come to mind when trying to describe the heavenly experience I had with Northern Masailand safaris. I was on a budget and therefore booked a budget safari. However, Henry managed to make the budget stretch a long way and gave me memories that I will never forget. You truly get more than your money's worth with this company. Will definitely be going back with my boyfriend for the Zanzibar package.
