Southern TanzaniaNyerere National Park
Tanzania’s largest park — boat safaris on the Rufiji River, walking safaris and very few other vehicles.
Nyerere National Park, formerly part of the Selous Game Reserve, is one of the largest protected areas in Africa. The Rufiji River and its lakes are the heart of the park, home to hippo, crocodile, elephant and a rich birdlife.
Unlike the northern parks, Nyerere allows boat safaris and guided walks. Short flights from Zanzibar and Dar es Salaam make it easy to reach, even for one or two days.
