Hello! I’m Anniina Sandberg, the founder of Visit Natives, a boutique travel agency. Visit Natives offers unique and authentic trips with Indigenous people in Tanzania and Norway. We connect travelers with Indigenous hosts to create meaningful experiences while embracing and supporting indigenous languages, cultures, beliefs, and knowledge systems.
You can book an unforgettable adventure in Norway with the Sami reindeer herders or in Tanzania with Maasai and Datoga pastoralists and Hadzabe hunter-gatherers. This is an opportunity to learn and grow, whether you want to try your hand at herding cattle in the Ngorongoro Conservation area, go hunting with the Hadzabe, or join a Sami family on their annual reindeer spring migration. All our tours are sustainable and respectful of the indigenous cultures and people.
Booking your trip with Visit Natives means you will be part of an effort to preserve indigenous cultures, improve their socio-economic conditions, and protect the fragile environment. The Indigenous hosts and local communities benefit the most from every trip booked with us, making your journey a truly altruistic one.
