Day One: DAR ES SALAAM SELOUS
Depart from Dar es Salaam city centre by 4x4 safari vehicle to the Selous Game Reserve. Enjoy a late lunch at
the Rufiji River Camp. Embark on an afternoon game drive in the reserve, and then return to Rufiji River Camp
for dinner and overnight
Day two: SELOUS GAME RESERVE
Enjoy a full day game viewing in the reserve. Participate in some classic – style game drives - exploring the
bush in open 4 x 4 vehicles. Waterbuck, southern reed buck and bushbuck are common in the Selous. Rare sable
antelope, lion and greater kudu also frequent this area. Meals and overnight at Rufiji River Camp
Day three: SELOUS GAME RESERVE
After breakfast, accompany an armed ranger on a waking safari in the reserve. The sights and sounds (and
smells) of a walking safari are a special treat that will live long in your memory. The thrill of creeping up to
animals to “shoot” them with your camera is a great experience. In the afternoon, enjoy a boat safari where you
will explore the different channels and lakes of the Rufiji River System, surrounded by hippos and crocodiles. A
large variety of herons, storks, ducks, stilts, and other water birds may be seen. And you also see land
mammals, such as giraffe and elephants. Meals and overnight at Rufiji River Camp
Day four: SELOUS GAME RESERVE
Another full day game viewing in the Selous Game Reserve.
Meals and overnight at Rufiji River Camp
Day five: SELOUS GAME RESERVE / MIKUMI NATIONAL PARK
Collect picnic lunches and drive to Mikumi National Park and proceed driving to Vuma Hill Tented Camp. The
camp is perched above the trees stretching over the seemingly endless wilderness south west of Mikumi
National Park. Dinner and overnight at Vuma Hill Tented Camp
Day six: MIKUMI NATIONAL PARK / RUAHA NATIONAL PARK
After breakfast drive to Ruaha National Park, which is famous for its rare sable antelope, roan antelope, and big
herds of elephants. The park represents a transition zone where eastern and southern African flora and fauna
overlap. Although Ruaha is one of the largest parks in Africa, it is comparatively unknown and, due to its
remoteness, remains unspoiled. Enjoy a late lunch at the lodge followed by an afternoon game drive. Ruaha
River Lodge is the only lodge in the reserve and is built on a rocky ridge with spectacular views of the Great
Ruaha River. Dinner and overnight at Ruaha River Lodge
Day seven: RUAHA NATIONAL PARK
Enjoy a full day game drive in the park. Nearly 500 bird species have been sighted within the park. The river
area features large numbers of hippo and crocodile and attracts lion, leopard, hunting dog, waterbuck, impala,
giraffe, warthog and eland. Grants gazelle, ostrich and cheetah may be seen on the plains. Meals and overnight
at Ruaha River Lodge
Day eight: RUAHA NATIONAL PARK
After an early breakfast drive to Mikumi National Park. Lunch at Vuma Hill Tented Camp, followed by an
evening game drive in Mikumi National Park. The park is well known for its population of elephants, giraffes,
buffaloes, zebras, elands, and greater Kudu, wildebeest, roan and sable antelope. Predators include treeclimbing
lions, leopards, wild hunting dogs and black-backed jackal. You may also see crocodiles, monitor
lizards, yellow baboon and hippos. Dinner and overnight at Vuma Hill Tented Lodge
Day nine: RUAHA NATIONAL PARK / DAR ES SALAAM
After breakfast, enjoy another game drive in Mikumi National Park. Return to the camp for lunch and then
