Mbali Mbali invites you to experience the safari of a lifetime – a journey through the most unspoiled, unique and fascinating National parks in Tanzania.

You will get off the beaten track and out of the game vehicle to experience nature up close. Track chimpanzees on foot through magnificent and mysterious forests, swirled in mist and full of the calls of birds and other primates.

Gaze in wonder at herds of elephant 300-strong and scenery so beautiful it will take your breath away. Swim in crystal clear waters or laze on golden beaches. Take in the famous wildebeest migration or take on some of the most exciting Game Fishing in Africa. Mbali Mbali offers you all of this and much more …

With Mbali Mbali you can visit the most remote, diverse and untouched National Parks in Tanzania: Gombe Stream, Mahale Mountains and Katavi National Parks. These special places are some of Tanzania’s best kept secrets, where those with an adventurous spirit are rewarded with an unforgettable safari experience. Tarangire and Serengeti National Parks and the Selous Game Reserve are easily accessible and offer rich game sightings.

With Mbali Mbali we take you away from the crowds and give you your own private African dream. It’s not just game viewing that’s on offer!
