A 3-day safari to Katavi National Park from Dar es Salaam is feasible via a short fly-in safari, which is recommended due to the park's extreme remoteness. The itinerary involves flying from Dar es Salaam to Mpanda, with flights operating on specific days, followed by an afternoon game drive on Day 1, a full-day game drive on Day 2, and departure on Day 3. This fly-in package typically includes flights, accommodation, meals, park fees, and a 4x4 game drive vehicle and guide.
On the first day, you will fly from Dar Es Salaam to Mpanda on a flight that will take about one and a half hours. When you get to Mpanda, you will be driven to your chosen accommodation where you will have lunch, settle in before embarking on a late afternoon game drive. Overnight at Katavi Wildlife Camp (Meal Plan : Lunch and Dinner).
