The Shrike DNA:
"We Care, Personally, and Deeply" Comes to Life
When we talk about "The Shrike DNA—We Care, Personally & Deeply," it's more than just a slogan for us.
It's our DNA, a way of life that runs through our veins.
It's the heart of how we operate, and it truly shines through in the experiences of our guests.
We've been privileged to host and guide countless individuals on incredible safaris and Kilimanjaro treks across Tanzania, and many have left as more than just clients—they've become our friends.
Our DNA is best expressed in the stories of actual guests. Let's share some recent examples
Reaching New Heights: Celebrating Your Milestones with Shrike
A Danish woman named Mia, whose name fittingly means "100" in Swahili, was on her Kilimanjaro journey.
At one point, she felt she couldn't continue and expressed a desire to descend.
However, her dedicated Shrike mountain guide, Inno, provided unwavering support and encouragement.
On summit day, as Mia and her friend Anna approached the peak, our Shrike trekking crew surprised her with a celebratory cake, congratulating "100" on her incredible achievement.
Overwhelmed with emotion, Mia was moved to tears of joy, embracing her friend. It was a moment of pure camaraderie, a testament to the spirit of Shrike Safaris.
We believe that these "little touches" are what transform a trip into an unforgettable adventure and foster lasting connections.
We look forward to creating similar personalized moments for you during your Tanzanian adventure.
Understanding Your Needs, Big and Small: Sunday Service in Arusha
Recently, a group of our guests expressed their desire to attend a Sunday church service while on safari.
Although they were deep in the bush, our team recognized the importance of their faith.
Upon their return to Arusha, Mark, the founder of Shrike Safaris, arranged for a private car and friendly driver to transport them to a local church.
This is just one example of how our DNA works.
Going the extra mile to ensure you feel comfortable and valued.
Small Touches, Big Impact:
The Kilimanjaro Egg Story
A group of friends trekking Kilimanjaro with us expressed how much they missed their morning eggs.
While transporting eggs on a challenging climb like Kilimanjaro presents logistical hurdles, we understood the significance of this small comfort.
To ensure they could enjoy their familiar breakfast, we arranged for an extra porter, dedicated solely to carrying the eggs safely to their high-altitude campsites.
Imagine enjoying freshly cooked eggs amidst the breathtaking scenery of Kilimanjaro – a taste of home in an extraordinary setting.
This "Kilimanjaro Egg Story" exemplifies our DNA, commitment to going the extra mile.
We understand that it's often the small, thoughtful touches that create truly memorable travel experiences.

Going the Extra Mile: Anticipating Your Every Need: The Perfect Pants
We recently had a guest who casually mentioned purchasing the wrong size pants in Zanzibar.
By the time he arrived at the Four Seasons in the Serengeti, the correct size was waiting for him.
He was delighted, noting the "perfect fit."
This is just one example of our commitment to exceeding expectations.
