Formerly part of the legendary Selous Game Reserve, Nyerere offers remote landscapes, rich wildlife, river scenery and a true sense of untouched African wilderness.
The park is especially famous for boat safaris on the Rufiji River, where visitors can see hippos, crocodiles, elephants, buffaloes and incredible birdlife from the water. This makes Nyerere one of the best destinations in Tanzania for travelers who want a safari experience different from traditional game drives.
Nyerere is ideal for travelers seeking authentic wilderness, fewer crowds and diverse safari activities. In addition to classic game drives, visitors can enjoy guided walking safaris, birdwatching, river safaris and luxury lodge experiences in one of Tanzania’s most peaceful protected areas.
