Heart of the Community
We believe that luxury and responsibility are inseparable. Your journey empowers the daughters of Tanzania and protects our heritage for generations to come.
"When you educate a girl, you educate a village. Our safaris are a vehicle for change, driving local female entrepreneurship and conservation."
The Matriarchal Edge
In an industry traditionally dominated by men, Still Waters Safaris stands as a beacon of female leadership. As a family-owned company led by sisters, we are breaking barriers by prioritizing the hiring and training of female guides and operations staff.
We actively partner with women's cooperatives—like the Shanga Foundation and local bead workers—ensuring that the economic benefits of your safari flow directly into the hands of the mothers and grandmothers who sustain our communities.
Investing in Tomorrow
We view tourism as a scholarship fund for the next generation. A portion of every booking is dedicated to supplying textbooks, solar lamps, and desks to rural schools in the Kilimanjaro region, where access to resources is often limited.
Guests are invited to "Pack for a Purpose" by bringing school supplies, which we can arrange to personally deliver to a partner school during your visit—transforming a simple holiday into a lifelong memory of connection.
Guardians of the Wild
Our commitment to the land is absolute. We strictly adhere to "Leave No Trace" principles, utilize custom vehicles designed to minimize emissions, and have eliminated single-use plastics from our operations, providing every guest with high-quality refillable bottles.
Beyond our footprint, we support anti-poaching initiatives and human-wildlife conflict resolution programs that help local farmers coexist with the elephants and predators that make Tanzania unique.
