Nyerere National Park protects a vast part of the former Selous landscape. The Rufiji River, lakes and surrounding woodland create a varied setting for wildlife. The national park is distinct from the remaining Selous Game Reserve.
Combine game drives with river-based exploration where licensed operators and conditions allow. The balance of water and land makes Nyerere a rewarding contrast to northern Tanzania, or a natural partner to a coast or island stay.
