Katavi National Park & Attractions

Katavi National Park, located in the remote southwest of Tanzania, is one of the country’s least visited and most untouched parks, offering a truly wild safari experience. Spanning approximately 4,471 square kilometres, Katavi is characterized by its diverse landscapes, which include floodplains, grasslands, woodlands, and seasonal lakes.

The park is named after the local Bende Tribe’s famous hunter spirit, Katabi. Visitors to Katavi can expect an authentic and uncrowded safari, with opportunities to see some of Africa’s most iconic species in their natural habitats.

Our Travellers Reviews

Outstanding tour operator

I can't say enough good things about Bryson and Petit Maasai. Bryson handled our last-minute trip to Tanzania like he'd been working on it for months instead of a handful of days after we connected about a week before our family arrived.

Kilimanjaro With Petit Maasai safaris- 5 stars!!!

We book 7 days Kilimanjaro with Petit Maasai safaris after having the safari with another company and we made it with a brilliant guide to the summit. We took the Lemosho route, starting in the rain forest and approached the camp via various tents campsites.

A great experience!

We did a safari in the northern parks of Tanzania with Petit Maasai Safaris and it was a great experience! The guide and the cook were really professional and nice with us, trying to make us feel comfortable and to satisfy our requests. Thanks a lot!
