Gorongosa Safaris

Mozambique

Gorongosa Safaris spans the vast and diverse landscapes of Gorongosa National Park, a globally recognized conservation success story. This remarkable wilderness is home to a thriving ecosystem, where lions roam the floodplains, elephants wander ancient forests, and over 400 bird species fill the skies.

With just six luxury tents at Muzimu Camp, set along the Mussicadzi River, guests enjoy an intimate and immersive safari experience. From May 2025, the new Chicari Camp will offer another exclusive retreat, deep within the park’s rich biodiversity. For those seeking a more community-focused adventure, Mt. Gorongosa Community Camp provides a unique opportunity to engage with local conservation initiatives while exploring the rainforest-clad slopes of this sacred mountain. Whether tracking big game, hiking through lush forests, or witnessing the park’s pioneering restoration efforts, Gorongosa Safaris promises a journey of discovery, impact, and adventure.
