With its diverse wildlife and stunning landscapes, Nyerere offers an unforgettable safari experience.

After breakfast, embark on an exhilarating walking safari, a truly unique and exciting experience found only in Tanzania. Accompanied by a trained, armed game ranger, you’ll explore the wilderness on foot for approximately two hours, gaining a rare, up-close perspective of the park’s wildlife and landscapes. Following this adventure, you'll continue your game drive, en route to Mikumi National Park, where you'll enjoy stunning views of the surrounding scenery. In the evening, unwind and relax with an overnight stay at Camp Bastian, nestled in the heart of the park.

After breakfast in the morning, we’ll embark on a full-day game drive through Mikumi National Park. The park’s iconic Mikumi floodplain, bordered by majestic mountain ranges, offers stunning vistas and an abundance of wildlife. Here, you’ll have the chance to see lions, elands, hartebeests, buffalo, wildebeests, giraffes, zebras, hippos, and elephants in their natural habitat. The Mikumi elephants are known to be gentle grazers and rarely cause any damage to their surroundings. In the evening, we’ll return to the lodge for a delicious dinner and a restful overnight stay.

After breakfast at the lodge, with packed lunch boxes in hand, we’ll visit a nearby Maasai village to experience and immerse ourselves in their unique culture and way of life.
