Your thrilling safari adventure begins when you arrive in Tanzania at Dar Es Salaam Airport. Meet your representative, transfer to a domestic airport and hop on a short-haul flight to Siwandu, your home for the next three nights. Ideally located in the spectacular Nyerere National Park, this is the perfect base from which to explore Tanzania's least known, yet wildest game reserve.

Spend the coming days going on game drives to see the great elephant herds and visiting the Rufiji River, the largest river in East Africa and home to the largest crocodile and hippo populations on the continent. After enjoying thrilling river safaris and bush walks, return to the camp to relax.

Siwandu is located within an open palm forest on the shores of Lake Nzerakera, giving you the opportunity to sit in your veranda and watch the sun set over the beautiful surrounding landscape.

After breakfast, transfer to the bush airstrip for your flight to Ruaha National Park. Here you will be met by a representative who will transfer you to Jongomero Camp.

Spend your time going on game drives, exploring the river and identifying the many different bird species. Experience a delicious bush dinner or picnic lunch while observing the magnificent hippos frolicking in the river.

Enjoy the rest of your leisure time in the camp, relaxing in the natural rock pool. Your nights are spent in comfortable thatched tents with their own viewing decks.

After a delicious breakfast, transfer to the airstrip for your flight back to Dar es Salaam Airport where your safari adventure will come to an end. Chat with one of our experts to add a couple of nights in Zanzibar for a convenient and superb tropical island finale.
