Blazing a trail on foot across the savannah is the true African adventure. On the Trek Tanzania Safari, Eddie Frank has recreated the exhilaration and passion for the Africa he came to know as a young boy growing up in the bush. You will trek with traditional Maasai warriors and gain a true insight into the world that is really Africa. As you trek on foot amongst the herds, and view game from our 4-wheel drives, you encounter real Africa in the company of Africans. And at night, in the comfort of well-placed tented camps along the way, imagine sleeping under the roof of a billion stars.

There is no better way to experience Africa than on foot - without a soul around - exploring pristine wildlife reserves face-to-face with the vast African wilderness.

The Oxford Dictionary defines a trek as a "long difficult journey, especially made on foot." Strictly speaking that may be true. However, when Tusker designed the Trek Tanzania Safari, we kept all the excitement of traditional trekking, without the "long and difficult" component.

For many decades, adventurers have been trekking the jungles and mountainous areas in South America and Nepal. But trekking in Africa is a relatively new idea. On the Trek Tanzania Safari, Eddie Frank, Tusker Trail's founder, has recreated the passion for the African bush he gained as a young boy growing up trekking in Africa. Accompanied by our skilled Maasai guides, you trek through the African bush and discover its secrets through an African's eyes. You hear the symphony of African sounds through an African's ears. But most importantly, you discover the spirit of the African bush through an African's heart.

Trekking in Africa is the ultimate wildlife experience. Face to face with the magic of this primeval wilderness, you return home transformed, imbued with the enduring spirit of an ancient continent.

After teaming up with his old friend Peter Lindstrom, Eddie Frank created a safari that emulates the "bush walks" they used to take as kids. Working together closely, Eddie and Peter created this unique adventure; one that truly connects Tusker trekkers with the passion and spectacle that is the African wilderness.

Maasai warriors are your traveling companions and guides. They are experts in local bushcraft. Your guides take great pride in inspiring you with tales of their land and their life, as they lead you through the bush they know and love.
