Safari summary
Selous Game Reserve is certainly one of the highlights among Tanzania’s southern national parks. It got a new name recently by the Tanzanian government and is now also known as Nyerere National Park. A highly recommended activity during your trip is the boat safari on the Rufiji River. The river runs through the entire park and it is easy to spot thirsty wildlife that gathers along its shores.
This private safari offers you the flexibility to travel at your own pace, exactly the way you like it. You will have a private safari vehicle and guide. The hotels we selected for you during this 3nights 4days Selous safari are mid-range accommodation. If you prefer more luxury or camping, you can communicate with us.

Selous Game Reserve in southern Tanzania is one of the largest game reserves in the world – it is even bigger than Denmark! It has a large number of wildlife such as lions, leopards, hippos, crocodiles, Masai giraffes and many more! With a bit of luck, you can even spot the endangered black rhino or the hard-to-find East African wild dogs. It is a lot quieter here than in the other parks, so you can enjoy a unique and undisturbed safari experience!
