Burigi Chato Safaris

Where Burigi Chato Safaris operates

Burigi Chato Safaris runs trips across 3 destinations in Tanzania, covering the Kagera Region. Each park has its own character — from open savannas and forested escarpments to coastal reefs — and Burigi Chato Safaris tailors itineraries around what you most want to see.

• Rumanyika-Karagwe National Park · Kagera Region — A newly established national park blending wildlife with the deep history of the ancient Karagwe Kingdom — rare roan antelope, forest birds, and iron-age archaeological sites in Tanzania's far northwest.
• Ibanda-Kyerwa National Park · Kagera Region — One of Tanzania's newest national parks — a remote northwest wilderness near the Uganda border protecting diverse savanna and forest in a transboundary corridor, completely off the tourist trail.
• Burigi-Chato National Park · Kagera Region — Tanzania's fourth-largest national park — a vast northwest wilderness of savanna, forest valleys, and Lake Burigi's shores, home to the elusive shoebill stork and sitatunga antelope.
