About Essential Destinations

Essential Destinations was created by a team of ecologists and biologists with the belief that the best way to keep Tanzanias wilderness truly wild is to champion respectful and sustainable eco-tourism. We are dedicated to the conservation of wildlife, natural resources, historical sites and places of natural beauty. We are proud to support the restoration of historical sites as well as a number of elephant and lion research projects.We believe that tourism is the answer to conservation of natural resources, of historical sites and of beauty. Because we believe that humans can become better persons by experiencing their roots, knowing the world as it has always been, before us and how it has changed through us in historical times.

Tourism can raise the funds to allow countries like Tanzania to keep more then 30% of its territory protected, rather then consume it through crazy development. In the bush we believe in small operations, light footed and well spread apart. This way further protection can be guaranteed to the ecosystems without interference with the natural orders.We take you to the most spectacular and interesting sites in Tanzania. Our mission is to show you those places you should not miss. Because of their astonishing beauty, their wild natural essence, their testimonial of our ancient steps in humankind. We have chosen eco-friendly and light footed properties everywhere we believe you should go! With minimal impact in protected areas, supporting conservation and communities and restoring historical sites
