7 Days Intrepid Tanzania
Take the road less travelled in remote Western Tanzania, one of Africa’s best-kept secrets. Here you will safari in solitude and enjoy the rare privilege of tracking chimpanzee in their natural habitat. Intrepid travellers and adventurous souls will delight in the wilderness haven of Katavi National Park, one of Tanzania’s most densely populated wildlife sanctuaries.
Day 1-3: Nomad Chada Katavi Camp, Chada Katavi National Park
A remote safari outpost, Chada Katavi is about as far as you can get from the tourist circuit. The purposefully low-key, traditional camp of just six East African safari tents blends into the shade trees overlooking the Chada Plain. This camp offers a consciously minimal-impact footprint. Each tent is spacious and comfortable with wide-open fronts giving you panoramic views of the plain and animal life that constantly comes and goes – often wandering right through camp.
Day 4-7: Greystoke Mahale, Mahale National Park
Offering simply the best chimpanzee encounters imaginable, Greystoke Mahale is a must. From the minute you sail into the camp’s pristine bay on a traditional dhow, you fall under the spell of Greystoke’s magic. The six en-suite thatch-roofed wooden bandas accessed by raised wooden walkways are light and airy; tucked into the forest line with superb views of Lake Tanganyika, they bring you remarkably close to the birds and wild creatures that are at home in this magical rainforest.
