8 Days Southern Tanzania Safari

8 Days Southern Tanzania Safari

This tour is very unique as it explorers the southern untouched part of Tanzania,

The Southern part of Tanzania is a good choice if you wish to visit more remote areas. There are several national parks and the immense Selous Game Reserve. Distances are longer than distances between the Northern Parks, but the effort of travelling the long distance is definitely rewarding. It can easily be combined with safaris in the more famous Northern parks or be visited on its own in combination with a beach holiday
