EWT's African Safaris are guided by the best: our guides know more about the veld and animals, history, culture and politics than absolutely any of our competitors. Their experience reaches even further: a big city zoo director, an author/expert who is one of the few Americans to be inducted as an honorary senior Maasai elder, a local Arusha business mogul and a former manager of several of East Africa’s most prestigious tented camps. Travel to Africa with EWT and you’ll be taken care of by the royalty of African guides!
