This 11-day luxury safari is set in the birthplace of safari travel, Tanzania, and features all the big game action of the Nyerere National Park (Selous) and Ruaha National Park balanced with relaxation on the idyllic island of Zanzibar.
Remote, raw and filled with wildlife, Nyerere National Park (previously Selous Game Reserve) is Africa’s largest game reserve. Yet unlike the iconic destinations of Tanzania’s Northern Safari Circuit, it remains relatively unknown to outsiders.
Nearly four times the size of the Serengeti, this massive conservation area is home to Africa’s Big 5 and all the top predators – lion, wild dog, cheetah, leopard and spotted hyena. The animals are present in large numbers too: a Nyerere safari is fantastic for sightings of large elephant and buffalo herds as well as healthy populations of hippo, giraffe and sable antelope.
Experience the stunning beauty of Nyerere National Park, where the Rufiji River creates breathtaking landscapes and abundant wildlife. Enjoy thrilling game drives and boat safaris, or embark on adventurous guided walking safaris with armed rangers. Discover the park’s wonders up close for an unforgettable luxury safari experience!
In addition to exhilarating game drives and river cruises, you can embark on guided walking safaris lasting from a few hours to several days, including nights of rustic fly camping. Feel the thrill of being on foot in big game country, accompanied by expert guides and armed rangers for your safety and adventure.
