Day 1, 2, 3, & 4	The Selous Game Reserve A short flight from Dar es Salaam brings you to the lush riverine wilderness of the Selous, and a range of tributaries, woodlands and grass plains to explore by boat, on foot or in open sided safari vehicles. Transferred to Mbuyuni Luxury Tented Camp, where you will spend your first four days enjoying the different types of safari available. The lodge is situated on the banks of a river with fantastic views of surrounding wildlife, and provides delightful accommodation in large permanent tents with private verandas where guests can relax and appreciate the superb setting. There is a refreshing swimming pool to enjoy after a hot safari and an elegant stilted restaurant from which to enjoy excellent candlelit dinners.
Day 5, 6, 7, & 8	Ruaha National Park Take a short flight to Ruaha, to find a completely contrasting safari environment from the green bush of the Selous. Ruaha is a stunningly wild and remote park characterised by reddish earth and vast ancient baobab trees across wide miles of rolling hills. Here you will spend four nights at Mwagusi Tented lodge, a small and charismatic thatched lodge on the banks of a sand river, where all the wildlife of the bush come to find water. Each day safaris are made in open-sided vehicles or on foot, with excellent guides to show you the magic of this unusual and still largely undiscovered expanse of African bush. Evening meals are laid out under the stars, and a remarkable standard of cooking and service will make your stay in Ruaha truly memorable.
Day 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, & 14	The Indian Ocean; Ras Kutani Fly from Ruaha back to Dar es Salaam and then on to Ras Kutani to end your holiday in Tanzania with a week of absolute relaxation at this small and romantic lodge on one of East Africa's most idyllic beaches. Spend your days enjoying wind watersports, snorkelling or surfing the waves, or explore the miles of white sand beaches at your leisure. Ras Kutani is set in a pleasant tropical woodland on the edge of a freshwater lagoon, with idyllic beachside accommodation in makuti bungalows with private verandas. Each has a hammock and utmost privacy, and sandy paths through the forest lead to a comfortable beachside restaurant and bar, from which you can enjoy some of the finest cooking on this coastline.
