Your guide

Meet Nora, the woman at the wheel

Nora founded Savanna Soul Safaris in 2025 and still leads trips herself. She is who you plan with, and often who you travel with.

Nora

“I wanted to build the company I wished existed when I started: one where a woman at the wheel is the normal thing.”

Nora is one of the first women to qualify as a safari guide in Tanzania. She founded Savanna Soul Safaris in 2025 after years guiding for other operators, and still leads trips herself.

In the vehicle

How Nora guides

Your pace, not the timetable

If the light is good and the cats are hunting, you stay. If the group has had enough by three, you go back to camp. Nobody is driven around to fill a day.

Stops before you have to ask

Nora knows the clean bathrooms, the shady lunch spots and the places worth getting out of the vehicle on every road she drives, and she plans them into the route.

Tomorrow explained tonight

Each evening she talks you through the next day: the drive, the hours, what the park is like at that time and what you have a real chance of seeing.

Guides in training

More women guides are on their way

Savanna Soul is training and mentoring women who want to guide, alongside the safaris we run.

Every trip you book helps pay for that.

Ask us about it when you write and we will tell you where it stands.
