Katavi National Park

Largely overshadowed by the Serengeti and Mount Kilimanjaro on the safari-goer’s, adventure-seeker’s itinerary through Tanzania, the Katavi National Park remains a real hidden gem, nestled deep and off-the-beaten-track between the great lakes and plains of the country’s south-western hinterland.

With fewer visitors comes a more raw and rich sense of isolation and wildlife, with the herds of Cape buffalo and elephant here seen crossing the Katisunga Plain unhindered by criss-crossing 4x4s or the sporadic pop-up safari lodge. There are also pockets of rare treats to be had, like formidable crocs lurking between the water channels of the Katuma River, prides of lions duelling through the riparian woodlands and thousands of hippos squatting the mud holes.

However, this one’s relative isolation and high access cost doesn’t mean it lacks any touristic edge. No sir, Katavi National Park tourist guides organise all the more authentic game walks and wildlife spotting adventures, while there’s even a clutch of high-luxury safari lodges to kick back in and unwind.
