Group Size

2–10 Guests

Tour Overview

Experience Tanzania at the right pace.

Connect four contrasting southern Tanzania destinations over ten days: Nyerere, Mikumi, Udzungwa and Ruaha. This route combines wildlife drives, a guided forest walk and time in different landscapes, starting at Dar es Salaam's international airport and ending there after a proposed flight from Ruaha.

The word complete refers to this four-destination circuit, not every park in southern Tanzania. There are several long road days, and the Nyerere-to-Mikumi connection is particularly dependent on seasonal road access. The operator must confirm the route and flight availability before accepting dates; additional transit time may be necessary in wet conditions.
