Western Circuit Safari

Where Western Circuit Safari operates

Western Circuit Safari runs trips across 3 destinations in Tanzania, covering the Kagera Region and Tabora Region. Each park has its own character — from open savannas and forested escarpments to coastal reefs — and Western Circuit Safari 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.
• Ugalla River National Park · Tabora Region — A vast, remote miombo wilderness in western Tanzania — wild dogs, lions, and hippo-lined rivers far from any tourist circuit, for travellers who want Africa completely to themselves.
