Overview
A signature journey, designed by East African specialists.
Southern Tanzania Fly-in Explorer is a 5-day / 4-night fly-in safari travelling from Dar es Salaam (DAR) through Nyerere National Park and Ruaha National Park before concluding in Dar es Salaam (DAR). The route combines riverine wilderness, broad floodplains and remote southern Tanzanian safari country in Nyerere National Park and remote baobab-studded wilderness and strong predator and elephant country in Ruaha National Park. Air transfers shorten the longer sectors, leaving more time for game drives, guided experiences and the atmosphere of each destination.
