Born in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and raised within the Maasai community, Malaki grew up watching guides arrive with wide-eyed travellers eager to learn about his tribe. That curiosity sparked a lifelong dream.
After years of carrying 30kg loads as a porter up Mount Kilimanjaro to fund his education, Malaki now leads safaris across the land he calls home. His mission? To show you the real Tanzania, with heart, humour, and unmatched expertise.
“I count myself the luckiest man alive. Every day, I get to share the beauty of my home with new friends from across the world.”

Founder & Lead Guide

Malaki Tumsif

Because a safari is only as good as the people who lead it.

At Migration Tanzania Safari, our guides aren’t just experts, they’re storytellers, trackers, protectors, and proud ambassadors of their culture. Every guide you meet here is part of our family, and when you travel with us, you become part of it too.

Who make it magical

Zebe grew up in a traditional Maasai village, where a love for wildlife was as natural as breathing. Like Malaki, he started out as a porter, saving every shilling to study wildlife management.

Since 2015, he’s been guiding guests through Tanzania’s most iconic landscapes, and doing it with passion, humility, and deep local knowledge.

Ask him about the Great Migration or Maasai rituals, you’ll leave with more than a photo. You’ll leave with a story.
