Tanzania tour operator for Safari, Kilimanjaro Climbing and Cultural Tourism
Our commitments
COMMUNICATION
We believe that the communication is a vital tool among people. Our drivers/guides are trained to take ample time to communicate with our customers. They also do their best to help our customers communicate with local residents.
We believe that encounters and conversations with new people will make your trip to Tanzania more fascinating and unforgettable.
TAILOR-MADE TRIPS
We believe that each customer has different purposes and budgets for visiting Tanzania. We propose different trips to each customer according to their wishes.
COMMUNITY
We believe that what Tanzania attracts visitors is not only wild animals in the national parks, but also the people living there and their culture. Through our cultural tours, we offer opportunities to our customers to visit a small village, and experience the real Tanzanian lifestyle. Part of the fees accrued from these programs is contributed to the local community to support their projects. We hope tourism benefits both visitors and residents.
At the same time, we are also trying to support the development of our staff (drivers, mountain guides and porters). This is being facilitated by providing reasonable salaries and safe working environment.
We also believe that if our staffs are happy with their job, they will be able to provide better services to our customers.
F&K strongly believes that through traveling, people will interact, learn, and understand different people, cultures and environments-And by doing so, the world will become peaceful place filled with love.
“Love and Peace Through Tourism”
