A Slow Safari

Safari isn’t just cruising around on the back of a 4x4 spotting game. Whether by foot, by sea, by bus, or by boat—safari is the Swahili word for journey. In Tanzania there are so many extraordinary ways to experience Safari, your journey.

 

At the Slow Leopard, we provide you with insider information on the Tanzania we know and love. We aim to bring together like-minded travellers to explore some of our favourite off-the-beaten-path destinations and experience the parts of the country that others may miss.

Our Slow Safari packages are thoughtfully built, budget friendly and offer a unique Tanzanian experience.
