5 Questions with… Romina
1. What’s your name, where are you from, and what’s your role at BlueGreen Tanzania Safaris?
My name is Romina, I grew up in Switzerland, and I’ve been working for BlueGreen Tanzania Safaris as a seller for the German market since 2024. At the same time, I’ve started a non-profit daycare to support the local community. This way, I can work in both of my dream jobs at the same time. In these short two years, Arusha has already become my home away from home.
2. What’s your favourite destination in Tanzania and why?
I love Mount Kilimanjaro! The mountain sometimes takes away my homesickness, since it reminds me a little bit of the Swiss Alps. In September 2025, I climbed to its summit, and standing on the Roof of Africa was the most unforgettable moment in my life. It felt a bit like being back home.
The surrounding nature and stunning view took my breath away… and just thinking back gives me goosebumps all over again. During this experience, I had the chance to interact with guides and locals on a whole different level, while reaching my own limits. It’s a unique and very personal experience that I’ll remember forever.

- 3. Which safari experience would you recommend to someone visiting for the first time?
- Even though Tarangire , Serengeti , and Ngorongoro are classics that many people visit year-round, this route is, in my opinion, the best choice for a first safari experience. There are so many animals and such diverse vegetation. The chances of seeing both the Big Five and the Great Wildebeest Migration are extremely high. Moreover, there are lodges to suit all budgets and preferences – it’s completely up to you whether you want to be immersed in nature and sleep in a comfortable tent or pamper yourself with first-class luxury between your adventures in the bush. No matter which option you choose, it will be a once-in-a-lifetime trip.
4. What’s the most unforgettable wildlife moment you’ve had?
Best of both worlds: Wildlife and tropical beaches
