Why this trip
With the bush plane from Dar es Salaam the safari begins already in the air: beneath the small aircraft the Rufiji spreads as a silver ribbon through the green. Nyerere National Park, formerly known as Selous, is regarded as one of the largest protected areas in Africa and suits couples who want a honeymoon in the wilderness, without crowds at the sightings. The safari on the water is special. On the Rufiji a boat glides past hippos, crocodiles and birds, elephants drink on the bank, and no one speaks louder than necessary.
Lake Tagalala is equally worthwhile, its shores filling with animals in the late afternoon. Stiegler's Gorge tells of history and offers a short walk for two. July to October is the dry season, animals gather at the waterholes and the bush is low. Lodges lie in the middle of the bush, often with their own terrace above the river.
Zanzibar follows well as a neighbour, where the trip fades out on the beach. Honeymoon plans flights and stages with you on a video call.
