In Harambe the official language is Swahili. If someone were going on a safari, it would probably be prudent to learn the terms for animals you may see. After all, if an excited guide spots an animal after three days of not seeing anything, he may very well use his native tongue. Thankfully, like any good translation guide book, the Swahili term for many of the animals found within the Kilimanjaro Safaris are presented upon first entering the queue.
Lion – Simba
Elephant – Tembo
Giraffe – Twiga
Ostrich – Mbuni
Hippopotamus – Kiboko
Cheetah – Duma
Zebra - Punda Milia
