The Wildfinder Dream Team – Your Safari Experts in Tanzania
Our story begins – like many safari dreams – with dusty tires, vast plains, and wide-open eyes. There we are, Julia and Daniel, excitedly sitting in an open jeep, camera at the ready, binoculars still the wrong way around. And behind the wheel: Francis – our guide, animal whisperer, and calm anchor in a world full of wonder.
What was meant to be a once-in-a-lifetime trip becomes a turning point. Because Francis doesn’t just show us Tanzania like a tour guide – he lets us truly immerse ourselves: in the soft morning light of the savannah, the deep growl of lions at night, and the rhythm of nature. From this powerful experience, a genuine friendship grows – and with it, a shared idea. Together with Francis’ wife Happyness – whose name says it all – Wildfinder Tours & Safaris begins to grow: a local safari operator in Tanzania that creates authentic experiences – sustainable, heartfelt, and with a deep sensitivity for people and moments.
What unites us? A love for the wild, trust in each other, and the desire not just to sell you a trip, but to give you a feeling. The feeling of truly arriving.
Now it’s time to introduce our team – the safari specialists behind Wildfinder, and the ones who make your very own Africa moment possible.
