Health Precautions in Tanzania
Drinking Water: Petit Maasai Safaris will provide drinking water every day of your tour. Please only drink bottled or boiled drinking water. Do not drink out of the tap at your hotel or other places.
Insects: You may encounter tsetse flies or mosquitoes when in the national parks. This is a reality in wild areas. We recommend swearing insect repellant with DEET to deter insects.While Malaria is becoming less-and-less a concern throughout Tanzania, it is a good idea to sleep under a mosquito net (provided by all accommodations we partner with) and wear mosquito repellent after sunset.
Travel Vaccinations - Talk with your doctor about travel vaccinations before your departure to Tanzania. Some vaccinations might need to be given 4-6 weeks before your departure, so plan ahead!

Our Travellers Reviews
Outstanding tour operator
I can't say enough good things about Bryson and Petit Maasai. Bryson handled our last-minute trip to Tanzania like he'd been working on it for months instead of a handful of days after we connected about a week before our family arrived.
Awsome
Exciting trip!!! Bryson made a private tour with masai mbome & we had a rest in mountains near Ngorongoro - everything was awsome!!! Morevover, all of our individual things we re made with great discount!Mike is great ranger too!
Kilimanjaro With Petit Maasai safaris- 5 stars!!!
We book 7 days Kilimanjaro with Petit Maasai safaris after having the safari with another company and we made it with a brilliant guide to the summit. We took the Lemosho route, starting in the rain forest and approached the camp via various tents campsites.
A great experience!
We did a safari in the northern parks of Tanzania with Petit Maasai Safaris and it was a great experience! The guide and the cook were really professional and nice with us, trying to make us feel comfortable and to satisfy our requests. Thanks a lot!
