Tanzania Overland Safari
Experience Tanzania’s diverse landscapes on an overland safari that captures the country's dramatic, ever-changing beauty. With a dedicated private guide, you have the freedom to travel at your own pace—within park regulations. Bush flights have strict safety weight restrictions, so a driving safari is an ideal choice for the avid photographer who needs the extra weight allowance for heavy lenses and gear.
A hallmark of any safari is the trip's pacing. This is even more so on overland trips. A well-structured itinerary ensures comfort while maximizing time when you are in each destination. This trip has been strategically designed to limit transit times to under two hours.
Advantages of an Overland Tanzania Safari:
• You can decide to spend more time at a sighting of your favorite species without adhering to flight schedules.
• Generally, driving is more affordable for groups of four or more, as the costs of a private vehicle and guide are shared, avoiding the expensive bush flights.
• No luggage restrictions. Unlike small bush flights with strict safety weight limits for personal and luggage weight, driving allows you to bring more gear, including hard-shelled suitcases. This is especially advantageous for the avid photographer.
Consideration: This safari will give you a great feel of the country and great freedom of pacing your trip. However, be aware that no matter how well we pace the trip, it will still involve long, often bumpy, and dusty roads, making it more tiring than flying.
