Our Story
Locally Owned. Deeply Rooted. Expertly Run.
Awesome Trek and Safaris isn’t managed from afar. We are homegrown in Arusha, with firsthand knowledge of Tanzania’s mountains, parks, and people.Founder Jafari Osujack was born in a Maasai village near Arusha and raised among the very landscapes he now guides guests through. With a degree in Ecotourism and years of experience starting as a porter and rising to lead expeditions for top-tier companies—Jafari launched Awesome Trek and Safaris to put ownership, decision-making, and economic impact into the hands of Tanzanians.
Today, he leads a trusted team of professional guides, chefs, drivers, and porters—all of whom share his dedication to excellence, fairness, and hospitality.
