About African Golden Cats
Born From a Passion for Tanzania
African Golden Cats Safaris was founded by Joseph Mwakasege and Cosmas Mushi, two Tanzanians with an unwavering love for their country's natural heritage. What began as a small operation guiding friends through the Serengeti has grown into one of Tanzania's most respected safari companies.
Named after the elusive African Golden Cat, our company represents the rare and extraordinary experiences we deliver. Just as spotting this magnificent cat in the wild is a once-in-a-lifetime moment, we strive to make every journey with us equally unforgettable.
Today, our team of expert guides, porters, and support staff operate across every corner of Tanzania, from the snow-capped summit of Kilimanjaro to the turquoise waters of Zanzibar.
