About Kori

Your Adventure Partner

Kori Safari & Climbing Tours was founded with one simple goal: to connect travellers with the raw, unspoiled beauty of Tanzania.

Who we are

Tanzanian, Independent, Hands-On

We are a team of certified guides, local experts and passionate adventure enthusiasts based in Arusha — the town where most Tanzanian safaris begin.

Between us we have spent years exploring Tanzania's mountains, plains and coast, and that first-hand knowledge is what we sell: not a brochure, but the judgement to know which camp is right for your dates, which route suits your legs and which corner of the park will be quiet in the week you visit.

Our name is on the logo, and our people are in the vehicle. The person who plans your trip is reachable on WhatsApp while you're travelling, and the guide who meets you at the airport is the one who takes you to the crater rim or the summit.

What we believe

Why Choose Kori

01

Local expertise

Deep knowledge of the national parks and the places in between — the hidden destinations that make a safari feel like yours rather than everyone's.

02

Customised itineraries

Designed by group size and interests: luxury lodge safaris, family-friendly wildlife tours, photographic trips and Kilimanjaro expeditions.

03

Safety first

Experienced guides, certified equipment and well-maintained vehicles. On the mountain, health checks twice a day and oxygen in the bag.

04

Sustainable travel

We support the local communities we travel through and treat the parks as what they are — shared, and finite.

05

Memorable experiences

From a Serengeti game drive to stargazing on Kilimanjaro, we plan for the moments people talk about afterwards.

06

Personal service

One point of contact, honest advice, quick answers. We would rather talk you out of a bad idea than sell it to you.

How we work

Small Team, Full Attention

We keep Kori deliberately personal. Enquiries are answered by someone who has slept in the camps we recommend, and every itinerary is drafted from scratch rather than copied from a template. If you need us during your trip, you reach a person, not a call centre.

  • Office hours Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM – 7:30 PM East Africa Time
  • WhatsApp for quick questions before and during your trip
  • Reservations handled at reservations@koritours.co.tz
