Amber Travel Tanzania

Why Choose Us?

Amber Travel Tanzania  Difference

Our small, dedicated team crafts luxury, bespoke safaris emphasizing sustainability and community impact. We offer life-changing experiences with flexible itineraries, small groups, safety, and local guides revealing destinations like never before. Is this the future of travel?

Dream big. Travel small.

Your dream trip doesn’t require a Hollywood budget or extensive planning. Our boutique luxury safaris, with groups ranging from 2 to 12 guests, ensure personalized attention from our Safari Directors and Driver-Guides, or a chance to connect with like-minded explorers.

Our guides are all Directors.

At Amber Travel Tanzania, we don’t have tour guides—we have Travel Experience Specialists. Our founder, Emmanuel Olenjoro, chose this title to better reflect their crucial role in delivering exceptional travel experiences. And don’t worry, they’ll skip the office attire and jargon.

Locally based - Local experts.

Our locally-based Safari Directors know the area intimately, planning visits to avoid crowds and offering tips on local dining and attractions. Fluent in the local language, they’re your go-to for expert advice and support.

Local support - All the Time

All Directors are supported by our local operations teams 24/7. If something comes up that your Safari Director can’t help you with (however unlikely that is), the team nearby is there to support them in keeping you safe and happy.

Your experience is their focus.

We want you to have the time of your life — that’s why we hire the smartest, friendliest, bestest Safari Directors around. It’s their mission to make sure you return home feeling like your life has truly been changed.

Giving Back  Through Community Tourism.

Invested in Tanzania

We’ve been pioneers of community tourism since the day we started. But what is that? It means we have always created our tours by building meaningful relationships with local communities, directly benefiting the people and places we visit, including Indigenous peoples, women, Education,Health, youth — anyone who has traditionally been marginalized or undervalued. Today, our definition has grown: the communities we impact ripples far beyond our destinations. There’s incredible power in being part of something bigger than yourself. Want in?

Emmanuel have worked to build a responsible business that leaves a positive footprint on Tanzania. They’ve become leaders in sustainability, integrating social and environmental best practices into every aspect of the business, giving back to the people and place that host them.

To People

While traveling Tanzania, a group of Amber Travel  guests were touched by the country’s limited educational resources. More than the lack of supplies, they were moved by the students who were ready, even desperate, to learn. With these children in mind, the group, together with the Founder Emmanuel Olenjoro,founded the nonprofit organization, AMBER Education Charity(ACT).

Over fifteen years later, the name has changed to join our efforts with Weston Turville Wells for Tanzania (WTWT) A Charity Founded by  Rachel BlackMore and Ponja E.Tayai,Amber Travel Tanzania Friends.The Charity have expanded to include education, women’s empowerment, healthcare, community development and clean water.

Core Values 

The AMBER TRAVEL  values are company values that play a significant role in how we define ourselves and set ourselves apart. We place a high value on living these values in everyday work practices. These values are 

Create Happness and Community 

We’re proud of our reputation as a world leader in innovative, authentic Luxury travels, and we work hard to make sure we stay there. Of course, it doesn’t really feel like work when you love what you do as much as we do. Perhaps it’s because we’re more than a company, we’re a family – a family of diverse individuals united by a profound respect for, and enthusiastic belief in, not only our values, but each other.

This unique combination of respect and enthusiasm prevents us from losing sight of what matters most – community, people, cultural exchange – and reminds us that creating happiness is a privilege we all share together.

We love Changing people  lives

It’s true. At Amber Travel Tanzania , changing people’s lives isn’t just a mantra, it’s the very core of our company culture, the essence of who we are, and the driving force behind everything we do.

The way we see it, change is the key to innovation, and people are the key to change. From our Safars Directors, Amber Travel  staff, partners and the thousands of travellers we interact with every day.

Do the right things

The foundation of our success is built on one very simple principle: Do the right thing all the time, every time. For our staff, for our travellers, for the people and places we visit. It’s the difference between booking a trip and fulfilling a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. It’s a pledge to recognize the problems facing the world today and act quickly to meet them. Above all, it’s a commitment to continually challenge ourselves to see the big picture and bring about meaningful and positive change whenever we can
