Tour Overview
Southern Tanzania is Africa's last great wilderness frontier. This safari combines the riverine landscapes of Nyerere (Selous) with the rugged beauty of Ruaha — two massive parks that together cover more area than Switzerland, yet receive a fraction of the Serengeti's visitors.
Boat safaris on the Rufiji River, walking safaris through untouched bush, and vehicle game drives provide a multi-dimensional safari experience impossible in the northern parks. The highlight? Tracking endangered African wild dogs — both parks support healthy populations of this increasingly rare predator.
This is a safari for those who've done the Serengeti and want to go deeper into wild Africa.

Hut Accommodation. Not a Compromise — A Strategy. The Marangu Route is the only Kilimanjaro route with fixed dormitory-style huts at every camp.
