OUR STORY

Exclusive Wilderness Trails

Is a boutique safari specialist established in Northern Tanzania nearly ten years ago. Founded by safari guide and wildlife enthusiast David Thadeus, who was born and raised in the great African Rift Valley, the company is rooted in a deep, lifelong passion for nature. With decades of experience, David has earned a respected and trusted reputation as a professional safari guide across Tanzania’s national parks and Kenya.

Our passion is to help international travellers to experience the extraordinary wilderness and beauty of the Africa we know and love, while contributing to the conservation of precious wildlife and fragile habitats for future generations.

There is a unique safari experience waiting to fulfil your dreams and aspirations. We would love to speak with you and create it together.

How we work

While African safaris and technology have evolved significantly since 2010, our core beliefs at Exclusive Wilderness Trails remain unchanged. Each client is unique, every safari should be individually crafted, and the service and attention to detail we deliver must be second to none.

Customer service is at our core
