We are a truly Tanzanian safari guide company – one of the only ones owned & operated by a native Tanzanian.  We believe that allows us to share a deep connection with this land & peeople with our guests.

Our founder

Steve Ngowi was born on the southern slope of Kilimanjaro and spent his entire life close to the bush and the wildlife in it. From age 6, his grandfather, safari guide Steven, raised him inside the safari life.

Both spent quite a bit of time with groups of professional British photographers who relied on Steven Sr.’s skill and expertise to help capture the images they sought. Steven’s dream has always been to follow in his grandfather’s footsteps, his ndifo.

Steven’s whole life has been dedicated to safari. It is an integral part of who he is. As the owner and lead guide of Ndifo Safari, he brings this specific knowledge and connection to all his guests. As a native Tanzanian who loves and appreciates the wild world around him, his focus for Ndifo is conservation and preservation of the natural gifts given to our care. That ideal helps form the cornerstone mission of our company.

We have generations of deep knowledge about East-African wildlife and local culture to share with you.

A portion of our profits will always go back to help our community. Learn about what we are doing now:  ndifosafari.com/commitment
