The shape of the trip
A complete route, with room for your own pace.
This eight-day southern itinerary is about contrast: Mikumi's accessible plains, Nyerere's waterways and Ruaha's rugged baobab country. Domestic connections keep the route practical while preserving the feeling of a real southern expedition.
