Tanzania Safari: Ruaha & Nyerere National Parks

Itinerary Details: Ruaha and Nyerere Safari

Day 1 – 4: Fly from Dar es Salaam to Ruaha National Park


Amazing Safari in Ruaha, Tanzania

This is a stunning flight that takes out from Dar es Salaam in the early morning and travels over Nyerere, a vast wilderness, the Udzungwa Mountain range, and then descends into Msembe Airstrip in Ruaha National Park. To pick up and drop off passengers along the journey, the aircraft may take off and land at a few different airstrips. Our guides will meet you at the airstrip and transport you back to camp.

Kigelia Ruaha

We investigate in one of Africa’s prime wildlife areas. We have specially made open game drive vehicles that are ideal for navigating Ruaha’s diverse environments. You can leave on foot as well. Being independent of others makes for a very different experience. We love “going out” for breakfast and relaxing in the wilderness with a sundowner. In all honesty, the only justification you need to do these things is because they are uncommon delights on a safari and something you wouldn’t do at home. This is safari as it should be, whether you’re traveling in an open game drive vehicle, walking the game trails with your guide, or simply exploring the camp in search of birds.

Day 4 – 8: Fly from Ruaha National Park to the Nyerere National Park


Nyerere National Park Tanzania

Leave Kigelia after breakfast in camp and return to Msembe Airstrip to catch an aircraft to Nyerere. You’ll receive a second warm welcome when touching down at Kiba Airstrip, and after a brief drive to camp, you’ll arrive at Sand Rivers Selous for lunch while taking in the breathtaking river views.

Sand Rivers Selous

Days are for exploration at Sand Rivers. Our 4×4 cars with open sides are excellent for taking in the scenery. for traveling a short distance as necessary. But if possible, we like to keep things spontaneous. Hop down and stealthily make our way into a good position on foot to get the best view, avoid scaring away animals from the lakeside, or spook an elephant herd as they graze. The same holds true for our vessels. Being on the river is a wonderful diversion from being in a car. Overall, a day at Sand Rivers isn’t spent checking boxes or driving nonstop in pursuit of the next animal.

Fly from the Nyerere National Park back to Dar es Salaam

Our guide will transport you back to Kiba airport this morning in time for your 45-minute flight back to Dar es Salaam after you bid farewell to new campmates.
