Walking Safaris are perfect for those who are passionate about the great outdoors and want an immersive trekking experience.
Tanzania designates its wilderness areas in various ways, each with its own set of regulations, leading to significant differences in the practices and standards of walking safaris. We offer top-tier walking safaris in Tanzania, featuring excellent guides – carefully selected through firsthand assessments. One of the standout experiences includes fly-camping walks.
In National Parks, walks must adhere to strict guidelines set by the TANAPA (Tanzanian National Park Authorities). These regulations aim to maximize safety while walking. For example, no more than six guests are allowed on a walk at any given time, and at least one qualified armed ranger must accompany the group, sticking to designated routes. These guidelines are relatively new to Tanzania's national parks, so we highly recommend walking from camps with a proven track record of offering reliable walking safaris and experienced guides.
Tanzania's Game Reserves are overseen by a more relaxed authority known as the Game Division, whose regulations are not as defined, leading to inconsistencies in walking safari standards. The success of these safaris largely depends on the guide's experience and knowledge, meaning that quality can vary. However, all of our recommended camps employ highly skilled guides who adhere to the specific rules established by the camp, ensuring excellent walking safari experiences. So, if you're considering a walking safari in Tanzania, it’s best to consult with us first, as experiences can differ significantly between camps.
We are a dedicated team of safari experts, driven by passion and inspiration, with a combined experience spanning many years.
