Travelers heading to Tanzania for a safari have the option of staying in either public national parks or private game reserves. Private game reserves offer a more exclusive and personalized experience with fewer visitors and greater flexibility. These reserves, located on private land, often permit activities such as night drives, walking safaris, and bush meals, which are generally restricted in public national parks. Our Personal Travel Designers can help you choose the best option for your safari.
