• Upon arrival, you’ll be met by a ranger and driven to Saadani Safari Lodge, located on the park’s southern border where the bush meets the beach.

• Return to the lodge for a hearty breakfast.
• After breakfast: Relax at the lodge or opt for a river safari along the Wami River (tide-dependent), where crocodiles, hippos, and birdlife thrive.
