Secluded Tanzania
An Exclusive Mobile Tented Safari Alongside Tanzania’s Finest Guides
Tanzania is duly famed as one of Africa’s top game-viewing destinations. With some of the continent’s greatest concentrations of wildlife, the sweeping savannahs of Tanzania offer an iconic safari experience. What makes our trip superlative is our emphasis on remote areas where game, rather than tourists, abounds. While small-group journeys to classic safari “essentials” like Ngorongoro Crater are included, we venture far from the well-trod track. In the wild expanse of Tarangire, elephants far outnumber people. And in the fabled Serengeti, our deluxe mobile tented camps are isolated outposts among the thousands of animals that traverse the plains beyond our tents.
- Experience the legendary Serengeti Plains on an itinerary designed to maximize wildlife viewing far from tourist crowds
- In Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire, encounter some of Africa’s most dense wildlife concentrations on small-group game drives
- Absorb the sights and sounds of the bush at NHA's Luxury Mobile Camp, redolent with vintage safari atmosphere

Group Size Limit
Approximately 14 Travelers
A very important feature of our trips is the limited group size as nature expeditions are best experienced with smaller sized groups of travelers.
Our Specialized 4 X 4 Safari Vehicles
As with all of our adventures around the world, our focus is on wildlife and nature viewing and in Africa a big portion of that is performed during our wildlife drives. In Tanzania our safari vehicles are specially-adapted, reinforced, roof-hatch Land Cruisers seating 4-5 travelers each, all in window seats. The custom-installed Volvo bucket seats have superior quality spring cushions and adjustable lumbar support for incomparable comfort. Since each row has its own roof hatch, and sits slightly higher than the row in front of it, all guests enjoy excellent viewing opportunities. With no middle seats, there is plenty of room for gear and extra leg room. Refrigerators/ice boxes keep drinks cool for our guests and an on board library of bird and mammal books offer insight into the region’s natural history. As is the case with all of our vehicles, these safari trucks are enhanced with specialized suspensions to ensure the most comfortable ride possible in the wilds of Africa.

Important Information
Tanzania is a magnificent safari destination, with prolific wildlife. This safari is designed to showcase the finest wildlife areas of Tanzania. We will try to balance all wildlife viewing to create an incredible, all-around wonderful safari experience that takes advantage of the highlights of the various ecosystems on this itinerary. This is delicately engineered by our local Expedition Leaders and guides. After several years of working on this trip and securing different permits, we have created an itinerary that incorporates the best wildlife spots while maintaining the seclusion and atmospheric accommodations that make an NHA trip special. Further, the remote exclusivity of our private mobile tented camp ensures we are far from the crowds.
