Itinerary
3 Days / 2 Nights Selous (Nyerere National Park) Safari – From and Back to Zanzibar
Selous Game Reserve, now officially known as Nyerere National Park, covers 5% of Tanzania’s land area—approximately 54,600 sq km—making it Africa’s largest wildlife reserve and Tanzania’s most expansive protected ecosystem.
The park hosts large populations of elephants, lions, buffaloes, wild dogs, crocodiles, hippos, and an impressive variety of bird species along the famous Rufiji River.
Originally named after British explorer Frederick Selous, the reserve is today proudly recognized as Nyerere National Park.
This 3-day safari starts with a pickup from your hotel in Zanzibar, followed by your boat or flight to Dar es Salaam, and ends with a smooth return back to Zanzibar with a hotel drop-off.
