Safari overview

About this journey

Western Tanzania wildlife and primates

This itinerary is designed as a remote safari concept rather than a fixed-departure promise. Final day order, flights, lodge nights and chimpanzee trekking arrangements must be confirmed for the requested dates before booking.

Why combine Katavi and Mahale?

Katavi provides classic big-game wilderness while Mahale changes the journey completely with forest trekking and Lake Tanganyika. Together they create one of Tanzania’s most distinctive regional combinations.
