From thrilling safari adventures to pristine beach relaxation, Tanzania offers the ideal blend of excitement, luxury, and bonding experiences for groups of female friends
Experience the magic of the African wilderness together. Our girls trip safaris are designed for groups of friends who want to share unforgettable moments—from witnessing the Great Migration in Serengeti to sunset drinks overlooking the Ngorongoro Crater. We prioritize private vehicle bookings for your group, ensuring you have space to relax, chat, and create memories together without strangers. Our female-friendly guides understand group dynamics and know the best photo spots for those iconic group shots with wildlife backgrounds. Special women-only guide options available upon request for those seeking female perspective and enhanced comfort.
Plan Your Group Safari
After your safari adventure, unwind together on the pristine beaches of Zanzibar. We select female-friendly resorts with spa facilities, group dining options, and private villa accommodations perfect for friend groups. Enjoy sunrise yoga sessions on the beach, spice farm tours with cooking classes, sunset dhow cruises with champagne, and vibrant nights in Stone Town. Our curated beach extensions include women-run businesses and empowerment tours, supporting local female entrepreneurs. Special amenities for groups include connecting rooms, private transfers, and exclusive access to beach clubs and wellness retreats designed with female travelers in mind.
Connect with Tanzania's vibrant culture through women-focused experiences. Visit female-run coffee cooperatives in the foothills of Kilimanjaro, participate in traditional beadwork workshops with Maasai women, enjoy private cooking classes learning Swahili cuisine, and shop at women's craft markets. We partner with local female guides who provide unique insights into Tanzanian life from a woman's perspective. These experiences not only create meaningful memories but also support women's economic empowerment in local communities. Special arrangements can be made for female-only groups interested in volunteering opportunities or cultural exchange programs during their trip.

All our guides receive specific training in hosting women's groups, accommodations are carefully vetted for female-friendly security and amenities, and we provide 24/7 female point of contact from our operations team.

Groups of 4+ women receive special discounts, complimentary room upgrades when available, a private guide dedicated to your group, and exclusive experiences like private bush dinners or beach picnics.

Real experiences from women who created unforgettable memories together in Tanzania
"Our Tanzania girls trip was literally life-changing. From laughing uncontrollably in our safari vehicle to having deep conversations under the African stars, we bonded in ways that wouldn't have happened on a typical vacation. True Africa Escape understood exactly what our group needed—the perfect mix of adventure, luxury, and private space. Having a female guide made us feel particularly understood and safe. The special touches like our private bush dinner celebration and spa day in Zanzibar were worth every penny. We're already planning our reunion trip!" - Sarah, Jessica, Chloe & Maria, USA
"For my bachelorette party, I wanted something different from the typical city weekend. Our 8-day safari and Zanzibar trip was absolutely perfect. True Africa Escape arranged special surprises throughout—a private sundowner celebration in Serengeti, a spa day for the whole group, and even a traditional blessing from Maasai women. We felt safe, pampered, and created memories that will last forever. The team understood exactly how to make it special while respecting that we wanted both group time and individual relaxation. Every one of my friends said it was the best trip they've ever taken!"
"Traveling with my mother, sister, and aunt (ages 28-65) required careful planning. True Africa Escape created an itinerary that worked for all fitness levels and interests. Private vehicle meant we could adjust daily plans, accommodations had connecting rooms for our family-style dynamic, and activities ranged from gentle wildlife viewing to more active options. Seeing the wonder in my mother's eyes as she watched her first elephant herd, and the joy as we all snorkeled together in Zanzibar—these are precious memories. The team's attention to multi-generational needs was exceptional."
"After ten years of talking about it, six of us finally took our dream Africa trip. The logistics of coordinating international travel from different countries seemed daunting, but True Africa Escape made it seamless with flexible payment options, detailed planning resources, and constant communication. Having our own guide and vehicle meant we could catch up while traveling between parks. The mix of safari excitement and Zanzibar relaxation was perfect for reconnecting. Special shout-out to our guide Anna, who became like a seventh friend—knowledgeable, fun, and genuinely invested in making our trip special."
We implement multiple safety layers for women's groups: 24/7 female operations contact, accommodation vetting for female security features (room locks, well-lit pathways, security personnel), private transportation eliminating stranger interactions, guide training in hosting female groups, emergency protocols tailored for women's concerns, and regular check-ins throughout your itinerary.

We offer flexible solutions for varying budgets within groups: tiered accommodation options (standard/luxury at same location), optional activity choices, flexible meal plans, and separate payment tracking.

Our group quotes clearly break down costs per person, making financial planning transparent. We also offer payment plans allowing different payment schedules for different group members while keeping the booking unified.
