Drive from Dar es Salaam to Nyerere National Park
We pick you up from Dar es Salaam and arrive for lunch, or if arriving late, then just light refreshments. Nestled within woodland along the banks of the great Rufiji River, lies Mloka Safari Lodge, an enchanting safari camp tucked into the untamed African bush adjacent to the vast, unfenced Nyerere National Park.
Go on a sunset cruise on our comfortable river boat, looking at hippos, crocodiles, and birds. Enjoy the spectacular sunset over this enormous river.

After breakfast, go on a full-day game drive in a specially-modified safari vehicle with a professional guide. You will see and learn a lot about a large number of animals, including all the great favorites – lion, elephant, giraffe, buffalo, and zebra – and all the other major species. You will also have a chance to spot the rare African wild dog and a great variety of bird species. Enjoy wonderful scenery, with varied topography like wetlands, dry grassland, light acacia forest, and higher ground with long views of far-off mountains.
Enjoy your packed lunch and take some time to rest. Your guide will select a location with shade and water nearby to watch animals coming to drink (a place with a clear view all around so that no predator can creep up unseen!). We return to the lodge by 6:30 for sunset and dinner.
