Recruiting Organization: Art in Tanzania
Summary
Art in Tanzania runs safari and tour operations in Tanzania as part of NGO fundraising. Interns help develop the tour programs, guiding and marketing our tours and safaris.
Details
Art in Tanzania looks to set itself apart from the crowd regarding safari and tour business by offering sustainable travel options. Commonly safaris are sold by tour agents located in the western world. They sell the safaris, but only part of the money comes to Tanzania to support the economy.
