Tanzania Walking Safari Experience

Walking safaris are the purest form of safari. Walking in Tanzania is completely different to game driving. On foot you are a participant in the world of wildlife rather than a spectator, a thrilling and unbeatable safari experience. Walking is only available in certain areas and can be short day walks back to the same camp or can be mobile where the crew pack up your camp and move it for you – greeting you at the end of your day’s walking journey with sundowners. Trekking is the next level of wild where you backpack through the wilderness and camp in a new location each night. Tents are lightweight, the team is very few so the focus is on immersion, getting stuck-in and wilderness rather than luxury.

Walking safari activities can be added to any safari itinerary and easily combined with cultural experiences, all at affordable rates, organized by African Choice Safaris.

Feel, Hear, and Smell Tanzania

Imagine walking the same paths as elephants and other wildlife, with the wind in your hair, the sound of a lion’s roar in the distance, and the distinct scent of the bush filling the air. As you walk, your senses come alive, making you feel deeply connected to your surroundings. The wilderness becomes real, and you become part of it, experiencing Tanzania in a way that no vehicle safari can offer.

Wildlife Up Close and Personal

When you’re on foot, animals see you as another part of the natural world, not just a visitor in a vehicle. This offers a thrilling opportunity to get up close and personal with wildlife in a way that’s impossible from the comfort of a car. Walking safaris also allow you to discover the smaller creatures and intricate details of the ecosystem, which are often missed during game drives.

Access Remote Areas on Foot

A walking safari gives you access to remote areas that vehicles can’t reach. Without being limited by roads, you can explore off-the-beaten-path locations, away from the crowds. This freedom to move through Tanzania’s wildest regions offers an experience of solitude and adventure that’s unmatched by any game drive, making it a truly unique way to connect with nature.
