Also a remote park, Katavi was fantastic, with its small river along which wildlife was concentrating. Well-known for its hippos and crocs.

In my opinion, Katavi national park is not a very good park as other national park of Tanzania. Though it's very large area. Also it is very far from Dar es salaam. And the rods are not good to go there.

Very remote in western part...I only stopped there on way to Mahale park. canals restrict viewing because you cannot cross canals. Lots of Hippos.

Long driving distances from game drive areas to camp! Flamingos and lions were very special here, but also a lot of fine birds.

Katavi National Park was a truly unforgettable experience, offering a glimpse into one of Tanzania's most pristine and untouched wilderness areas. The wildlife viewing was beyond anything I expected – I saw large herds of buffalo, hippos in abundance, and even a pride of lions lounging by the water
