“Everything we needed was taken care of by the very helpful and friendly staff, including all kosher meals and safari drives. The effort they go through, to set up Kosher catering in the most remote safari wilderness areas in Africa's premier national parks, is astounding. We felt truly spoilt ” - Family Stern, Israel

Tanzania is for many, a bucket list, once in a lifetime experience. The high national park fees and tourism taxes, as well as U$ dollar based costs, does make it a fairly expensive exercise, but it is totally doable, with the right itinerary, for the Kosher market. There are very few Jews living in this nation, so we fly our private Kosher chefs into the nation from neighbouring or nearby countries.
