A thoughtfully designed Tanzania journey, shaped around the way you want to travel.

6 Days Ruaha and Nyerere Safari safari landscape

The journey

Overview

Overview
Nyerere and Ruaha are separated by substantial distances, so this six-day itinerary uses domestic flights rather than trying to connect both entirely by road. Nyerere brings river channels, floodplains and boat-safari potential; Ruaha adds a more remote wilderness feel, the Great Ruaha River system, elephant concentrations and strong predator opportunities.
