Southern Tanzania Highlights Tour

Experience the world famous Selous Game Reserve, named after Frederick Courteney Selous, a British explorer and hunter in East Africa, Africa’s largest protected wildlife reserve. Due to its remote location, and being easily accessible only by small aircraft, the Selous Game Reserve has remained one of the untouched gems of Tanzania. Ruaha National Park is also a remote area of spectacular wilderness, undisturbed wildlife, and breathtaking scenery with herds of more than 10,000 elephants and an abundance of bird life.
