Why go south

Fewer crowds

Fewer vehicles and visitors in many southern parks, with more space to enjoy the wilderness.

Boat safaris

See wildlife from the water on rivers and lakes, a different view from a game drive.

Easy from Zanzibar

Fly from Zanzibar to Mikumi for one or two days, or visit Nyerere on a day trip.
