SOUTHERN CIRCUIT

Most visitors visit to Tanzania fly in via Dar Es Salaam which means “Haven of peace” reflecting the relaxed and informal atmosphere of the city. From here visitors can take a flight or drive to the game reserves of the south. Though less frequented than the national parks of the north, Tanzania’s southern park are most certainly worth a visit as they provide a sense of African adventure not possible anywhere else on the continent. The principle reserves in the south are Selous, Mikumi, Ruaha, and the Udzungwa mountains national parks.
