Southern Tanzania safari holiday
Experience a unique and memorable family safari adventure in Tanzania's southern parks
Summary
Our Southern Tanzania safari holiday encapsulates the epic wilderness and authenticity of a Tanzania luxury safari.
Itinerary overview – Southern Tanzania safari holiday
Tanzania’s southern parks are less famous than their northern counterparts, however, they are no less spectacular. As access has improved in recent years, these parks have become our firm favourites for an authentic family adventure.
Over a period of 7 nights and 8 days, you’ll enjoy:
- 3 nights in the magnificent plains of Ruaha National Park,
- 4 nights exploring the stunning waterways of Nyerere National Park.
Activities included
On this fantastic luxury family safari holiday, you’ll enjoy incredible game-viewing in Ruaha’s vast open spaces, as well as enjoying the opportunity to partake in boat safaris in Nyerere National Park. The walking safaris in this part of Tanzania are particularly exceptional. You can even try a spot of fishing.
Pricing and considerations
This itinerary is best enjoyed from July to October when wildlife viewing is at its peak, however, if you really want to get away from it all and not see a soul then the green season from January to March is beautiful and the birdlife is phenomenal.
Our guide price for this itinerary is from £4,255 | $5,785 per person (based on 2 adults and 2 children under 12), using our best value accommodation in low season.
All our luxury family safari holidays are designed on an individual basis, so this price will vary depending on time of year, activities, transport methods and choice of accommodation.
The best way to start planning is to contact us.
Note – we don’t recommend this itinerary for very young children. Our advice would be for those 8 and above.
