From the Savannah to the Beach

A Bucket List Destination

Tanzania. Dreams of the savannah & dreams of white  sand beaches. These dreams are about to come true as you embark on an amazing journey to this truly magnificent destination!  

Multifaceted Adventures

aktiv planet offers unique adventures in colorful,  majestic and ever-surprising Tanzania. We suggest a two-fold itinerary that includes a safari and a beach stay on Zanzibar, the Spice island

On the safari portion of your adventure, look for the Big Five (the lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and Cape buffalo) from the comfort and safety of your private 4x4 vehicle, driven by your knowledgeable driver-guide. Traverse incredible volcanic regions, picnic in the bush, observe a multitude of wild life, discover the way of life of the Maasai (and for the more adventurous, the Hadzabe) and walk in the caldera of Ngorongoro.

Your Zanzibar extension promises an explosion of flavors and colors! The labyrinthine streets of Stone Town will delight you, and the crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean soothe your soul. 

Incredible Detail and Service

At aktiv planet, we strive to deliver real experiences, moments that you will cherish forever, discoveries you will never make with big-box travel retailers. 

Consequently, it is our philosophy to work with locally-owned businesses, and contribute to the growth and
development of hard-working colleagues in this amazing locale.

Meet Samson, aktiv planet tanzania's Managing Director

Tell us about who you are, Samson!

What is your favorite activity with clients?

What is your favorite activity with clients?

 I am from the fascinating Maasai tribe of Tanzania. My mother inspired me to dream big (she was a cook and as a side job, created nutritious lunch boxes for tourists), so I became a professional guide, learned about the industry & now work with aktiv planet!

I am also Secretary of the Tanzania Tour Guide Association.

What is your favorite activity with clients?

What is your favorite activity with clients?

Driving in the wilderness. Nature is never the same. Today’s experience is different from tomorrow’s experience. I am always mesmerized!

Guiding clients as we visit parks in the Northern Circuit or in places that are off the beaten path is always the highlight of my job.

What is your favorite wild animal?

What is your favorite activity with clients?

Why should I choose aktiv planet in Tanzania?

The lion and lioness. They represent Maasai life: male and female behavior, the courage and strength of the females in particular; the beauty of the lion’s mane. I see my people in them!

You have lots of choices in my country, but I recommend our services because aktiv planet cares about people in Tanzania and cares about you, our clients. Choose us and you are supporting a great company that employs locally and ethically.

What else can you tell us about you, Samson?

I am not a complicated guy.   

I like food that is simple and flavorful. Nyama choma (barbecue meat) and rice is a perfect combination. Oh, and I also enjoy a glass of milk.

Note that at aktiv planet, we accommodate every diet.

I love to learn new things to improve my career (I use what I learned when I was contracting for tourism agencies); I like to laugh at jokes; and in my free time, I like a good pool table game.
