Full day game drive in Ruaha National Park, one of Tanzania's famous wilderness areas where one can have a rare experience of game viewing spiced up by a fascinating landscape and rich of plants and animals such as Greater Kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros) which cannot be found in any other national park.

Day 3 :

After breakfast, drive to Mikumi National Park arriving for lunch or take picnic lunch. After lunch, afternoon game drive in the park, which abuts the northern border of Africa’s biggest game reserve the Selous? In this park, swirls of opaque mist hide the advancing dawn, and the first shafts of sun color the fluffy grass and herds rippling across the plain in a russet halo. Herds of zebras, confident in their camouflage at this predatory hour, pose like ballerinas, heads aligned and stripes merging in flowing motion. Dinner and overnight at Vuma Hills Camp
