Overview
The Southern Tanzania Luxury Safari – Nyerere & Ruaha is a 7-day safari through Nyerere National Park (Selous) & Ruaha National Park, designed and operated by Saringi Tours. Based in Nairobi and women-led, Saringi has been building private African itineraries since 2018. This route takes in Serengeti, Zanzibar, with each day sequenced to put you in the right place at the right time for wildlife.
Bush and beach is one of East Africa's most satisfying combinations, and this 7-day itinerary gets the balance right: proper wildlife days in prime game country, then a coastal or island stay to wind down. Transfers, accommodation, and logistics are all managed by the Saringi team in Nairobi. Dates, lodge category, and duration can be adjusted to suit your schedule.
Trip Highlights
Rufiji River boat safaris: hippo pods, Nile crocodile, and prolific birdlife
Walking safaris in both Nyerere and Ruaha, rarely offered on the northern circuit
African wild dog territory in one of Tanzania's last strongholds
Greater kudu, sable and roan antelope: species absent from northern Tanzania
Exclusive camps with a fraction of the vehicle numbers in the Serengeti
Optional Zanzibar extension on departure from Dar es Salaam
Day-by-Day Itinerary
Arrive into Dar es Salaam and transfer to a private harbour-view hotel. Rest before the light-aircraft flight into the bush tomorrow morning. Dar es Salaam's waterfront and Swahili coast cuisine are worth exploring if you arrive with time.

I had an absolutely wonderful time in Kenya, all thanks to Millcent / Saringi Travel. From the incredibly friendly and reliable communication, to the flexible and thoughtful travel planning, all the way to the outstanding care on the ground, everything was simply perfect. I always felt well taken care of and in the best hands. What impressed me most was not only their professionalism, but also the sheer beauty of the entire experience. I'm still completely in awe! Thank you Millcent and thank you Letaloi!!!
