Safari 友 Rafiki
A friend on the ground
A friend on the ground
Our story
Built between two continents, run from Arusha
Sia Blooms is a family business. Our directors spent their careers delivering high-end hospitality in Europe and China, then came home to Tanzania to do the same thing here: run trips with care, on time, without cutting corners.
Rafiki means friend in Swahili. The character 友 means the same in Chinese, and both sit in our name for a reason. For years, Chinese travellers arrived in Tanzania and saw the savannah through a layer of language and logistics. We built the bridge: Mandarin-speaking consultants, guides who can explain what you are looking at, and a WeChat thread that answers at 2 a.m. if a flight is delayed.
- The operator is the guide: we do not resell other people's departures.
- Fair pay, year-round: crews paid above the local average, not just in high season.
- Conservation in the itinerary: a share of every booking funds anti-snare patrols and tree planting.
Operating since 2014
