Cruize Wild Safaris
See more than a destination. Travel Tanzania with a route that makes sense.
Cruize Wild Safaris is a Tanzania-based safari company with a main office in Iringa and a branch office in Arusha. Our team plans wildlife safaris, cultural experiences and private journeys for couples, families, friends and small groups.
Our strongest focus is Tanzania: the quieter wilderness areas of the Southern Circuit as well as the classic parks of the Northern Circuit. Start with one of our sample itineraries, then adjust the route, pace and accommodation style around the trip you want to take.
Three ways to experience Tanzania
Safari, summit or Indian Ocean — build one journey around all three.
Cruize can connect wildlife circuits, mountain adventures and Zanzibar time into one practical itinerary instead of treating them as separate holidays.

Where to go
Explore Tanzania’s wild places
From wildlife parks and high mountains to the Zanzibar coast, choose the places and experiences that fit your journey.
TanzaniaGombe Stream National ParkGombe is a small forested national park on Lake Tanganyika, reached through Kigoma and boat transfers. Guided chimpanzee tracking is its signature experience, with sightings dependent on wildlife movements and conditions.Explore destination →
TanzaniaMahale Mountains National ParkMahale combines rainforest-covered mountains and Lake Tanganyika scenery. Guided chimpanzee tracking is the main draw; reaching the park requires careful lake or air logistics, and wildlife sightings are never guaranteed.Explore destination →
TanzaniaMkomazi National ParkMkomazi is a less-visited northern Tanzania park near the Pare and Usambara ranges, known for semi-arid landscapes, wildlife and conservation programmes. Rhino-related activities may have restricted access and require advance approval.Explore destination →
TanzaniaSaadani National ParkSaadani is a rare Tanzanian national park where coastal habitats meet wildlife landscapes. Activities depend on seasonal conditions, park rules and licensed local operations; do not assume boat excursions run daily.Explore destination →
