The West

Lying in the Great Rift-Valley are the inland lakes, Lake Victoria and Lake Tanganyika.

All the three national parks in this circuit offer unique opportunities to see chimpanzees in their natural habitat. These habitats adjoin West and East Africa, therefore their landscapes, rainfall, flora and fauna are peculiar to this part of Africa.

The western circuit is seldom explored on its own but is more often and addition to either the southern or northern safaris, or both.

Owing to the remoteness of this circuit the travel both by an aircraft and a boat is necessary in order to experience this lovely extremity of Tanzania.
