Southern Tanzania Explorer

c

As a 'non-photographer' I went along as Pierrette's so-called 'sherpa'. In the evening, the isos, exposure and other apertures were set aside for a moment, and there was time for funny anecdotes with the necessary sense of humor! Very important for a 'non-photographer' !!

This full 10 day photo safari takes you to two of Tanzania’s wildest and least visited wildlife reserves.

The Selous Game Reserve with its Rufiji river and lakes doesn't just attract lots of birds, but also enormous populations of mammals. Among many other species it is - like Ruaha - home to the rare African wild dog and the sable antelope. Note: the name of the part of the Selous where we will be staying has recently changed to Nyerere National Park, but it is still commonly referred to as the Selous.

Ruaha National Park is well-known for its varied dramatic scenery and the accompanying diversity of animals, including some rare and threatened species.

Southern Tanzania was a new experience. Different landscape, different fauna. Little known and therefore less tourism. The wildlife experience was intense both in the jeeps and on the boats. Again well organized with surprising accommodation. Guidance with technical tips and a lo…
