Two Brands, One Story

After a holiday in Tanzania, Dutch entrepreneur Robbin Meulemans and his wife were under the country’s spell. Together with Epimark Bernard, one of Tanzania’s luxury travel and top safari guides, Robbin founded Tanzania Specialist in 2017. Their goal: first-class, private tours with professionally trained and local safari guides.

To make guests fall in love with even more African countries, they founded Africa Safari Trips with Mees Overdevest, who is now the managing director of Africa Safari Trips. Together, these brands offer African safaris in Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Botswana, South Africa, and soon Namibia… and who knows what the future holds!
