Introduction

Embark on an extraordinary 12‑night journey to Tanzania’s hidden gems — a safari designed for those seeking space, tranquility, and a deeper connection with the wild.  Your adventure begins and ends in Dar es Salaam, a vibrant coastal city that sets the scene for the extraordinary days to come.  From here, fly to Ruaha, Tanzania’s largest national park and a realm of timeless beauty. Its landscapes — dotted with ancient baobabs, graceful palms, and craggy kopjes — are home to ten percent of Africa’s lions, huge herds of elephant, and an impressive array of antelope, from the striking greater kudu to the rare roan and sable. Wild dogs and leopards also slip through the bush, making every game drive an event.  Next, journey to Katavi, a secluded wilderness where sheer abundance is the hallmark. Expect to witness massive herds of buffalo, giraffe, and zebra grazing the plains, and in the dry season, marvel as hundreds of hippos gather in dwindling pools — a truly mesmerizing spectacle.  Finally, end your journey in the Nyerere (Selous) Game Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage Site three times the size of the Serengeti. Here, the languid river and shimmering lakes create a serene backdrop for intimate wildlife encounters. Enjoy the thrill of walking safaris, drift along the water by boat, or settle into a luxurious fly‑camp under a blanket of stars — an unforgettable finish to a truly extraordinary safari experience.
