About Us

LEM Carnivore Tours is an experienced safari company based in Arusha, Tanzania. In the heart of East Africa, our friendly tour guides and office personnel want to help you explore our country’s natural wonders like Mt Kilimanjaro, the Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. We focus on creating a personalized experience for our guests, and can work with you to create the ideal and memorable vacation. Let us be your guides to this land of adventure and mystery. Allow us to introduce you to the wonders and unique beauty of our country in a way that only a small, private company is capable: with individually customized services designed to ensure you experience first hand the magic our land and people have to offer.

Tanzania has it all. Amazing wildlife, accessible family friendly safaris and remote jungle treks, white sand beaches and snow capped mountain peaks. In the north, the Serengeti plays host to the world’s greatest wildlife event as hundreds of thousands of wildebeest and zebra migrate endlessly across the African plains, running the gauntlet of lions, hyena and other predators. Witness the migration by 4×4, take a balloon or horse riding safari across the wide open plains, or trek across the Ngorongoro Highlands.

The stunning, but remote south holds many treasures for the more intrepid traveller. Vast and virtually unvisited, Selous is Africa’s largest game reserve, and rewards with phenomenal scenery and wildlife. Katavi, which can only be visited by small plane and has only one camp, is one of the few places in Africa where you will meet more lions than people. Chimpanzee trekking in the majestic rainforests of Mahale and Gombe is a unique way to experience the African wild. The exotic beaches and coral reefs of Zanzibar, and lesser known islands such as Mafie and Pemba, offer sun, surf and the taste of a unique culture. While snow capped Mount Kilimanjaro offers the fit and adventurous a chance to touch the roof of Africa.

In the rough terrain of Africa, you need vehicles you can rely on; vehicles with as much comfort as we can provide to make your journey as pleasant as we can. Our fleet of sturdy 4x4s is rigorously maintained and serviced to ensure that they cope with the challenges of safari country. A full ‘top-to-toe’ pre-safari inspection and service is carried out before every trip. Our 35 Land Cruisers are custom-built and equipped with heavy-duty wheels and extra fuel tanks.

On our adventure camping safaris you will be immersed in the East African wilderness. You will travel on rough adventurous roads, pass tiny rural settlements and see fascinating landscapes and abundant wildlife. All your senses will be involved; from smelling early morning coffee, experiencing the thrill of a kill to the chill of a morning game drive. Falling asleep to the hooting of an owl or waking up with the roaring of a lion is what you will experience. The safari experience is all the more intense as you are ‘right in the middle’ of it all.
