Walking in Tanzania is completely different to game driving. Short day walks return to the same camp, or choose a mobile safari where the crew moves camp for you — greeted at day's end with sundowners. Trekking goes further: lightweight tents, a small team, and full immersion in the wilderness.
Get Up Close & Personal
Walking is only available in certain areas and must be led by armed rangers. It is a thrilling and unbeatable way to read tracks, learn bushcraft, and experience the savanna at human pace.
Combine walking with classic game drives on our northern circuit safaris, or ask us to design a walking-focused itinerary.
