Nyerere National Park, formerly part of the world-famous Selous Game Reserve, is one of Africa’s greatest wilderness safari destinations. Covering an immense area of untouched southern Tanzania, it offers a completely different safari experience compared to the northern circuit, making it ideal for travelers seeking authentic Tanzania safari tours away from busier tourist routes.
The park is especially renowned for unique boat safaris along the Rufiji River, a rare safari experience where wildlife encounters happen from the water. Hippos, crocodiles, elephants, buffaloes and rich birdlife create unforgettable river-based adventures. Walking safaris with expert guides also provide immersive close-to-nature experiences that few safari parks can match.
