Nyerere Fly-in Safari
4 nights, 1 distinct landscapes — nyerere fly-in safari.
From the first transfer to the final morning, every stop earns its place — the Rufiji River and wild dog.
Add a night in Dar es Salaam before or after — a relaxed arrival or a buffer before your flight home. Just ask.

Journey's end

Northern river crossings
The migration pushes north and the Mara River crossings begin — the headline months, and the busiest. Book well ahead.
