Katavi National Park — Attraction in Katavi Region

this park is real a killer , i saw animals that i ain't believe they are still existing , services were totally awesome employee here were so charming and kind they show remarkably hospitality that i wished to extend my time. accommodation is also great i do like safari tour in this park as they explain whenever you need to know an animal along the way.The climate condition favors camping activities and enjoy the whole moment you experience during your time here. Whats more amazing is there is rental camping gears like camping tents and help you to find best camping spot that you can’t be spotted be predators.

There was only one ranger allowed to handle payment called Dotto. We stayed for two days and had to wake him up on both days to get into the park. The first day we arrived at 7:30am and it took him until 8:15am to get to the park. That was very frustrating however considering Covid 19 and the lack of tourism it could be excused (although still very unprofessional). So we told him explicitly that tomorrow we would be at the gate for 6:30am payment in order to do a morning game drive and walk.

The "green season" from around mid-November to March has its own special attractions - migrant birds, crystal clear skies with dramatic storms through the rains, still impressive game and no crowds!

The guides are outstanding and Katavi is one of the best places for fly-camping anywhere - you might not get much sleep but these are nights that you won't ever forget.

It's expensive to get into Katavi but game conditions are seriously dramatic if you get your timing right, the guiding standards are high - Katavi is cheap at...
