How Signature Safari was Founded!

Mr. Innocent Villone Kawiche,  CEO and co-founder of Signature Safari Tanzania, born and raised in Kilimanjaro Region at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, cofounded Signature Safari Tanzania in 2006. For many years, he has been leading people on adventures to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro and on wildlife safaris into the wilds of East Africa. He has a deep understanding of the history, people and culture of Africa.

Two relatives, Alice Kawiche and Edwin Kawiche, joined Mr.Kawiche.  The three of them share a wealth of experience in the adventure industry and, due to the fact that they love each other, they decided to join their efforts in making something beautiful as their care and their legacy. Thus Signature Safari was born as a family company.

After establishing Signature Safari, the Kawiche family began leading adventurous travellers through Tanzania’s northern circuit, southern circuit, Mount Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar beach holidays.

At Signature Safari, we also have a board of advisors.  Therefore, a process of examination and advice from our board backs everything we do. We also receive advice from a worldwide group of affiliates, friends and colleagues of our board members, all of whom feed into our processes to guarantee quality of decision-making and company direction.

Signature Safari had the opportunity to lead several groups of famous people from all four corners of the world. We guided families, private groups, football players, and movie stars who were able to make it the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, to Zanzibar for beach holidays and to safaris in the wilderness. Amongst them was Mr. Peter Lagarias, co-founder of Rotaplast, an international organization, working worldwide with plastic surgeons to eliminate the burden of cleft lips and/or palate. Also, in July 2022, we  guided an Indian family with a 14-year-old girl who successfully climbed to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro.
