French5 days 4 nights Katavi National Park
Offered by - Nyangulo Africa Safaris
Tour Features
This 5 days safari takes you to Katavi National Park in the most remote western park of Tanzania and enjoys game drives and a walking safari in the African jungle. Completely off the beaten track, Katavi is isolated and undiscovered by all but the most ardent safari goers. The national park encompasses huge grassland plains, marshland, rugged hills, woodland, lakes and rivers which, when combined with the surrounding game reserves of Rukwa, Lukwati and Luafi, form a great ecosystem of some 25,000 square kilometres. What’s even more appealing is that there with only a couple of permanent camps and just a few hundred visitors a year, you’ll get it virtually to yourself.
