Nyerere

Safari

An Exclusive Safari Experience

Nyerere National Park, previously known as Selous Game Reserve, is the largest national park in Africa. The park is situated in the southeastern region of Tanzania in East Africa.

It’s a lesser-known destination and, therefore, is less crowded than the popular northern parks in Tanzania, which gives it a wilder and more private atmosphere. The park is home to many species, including a good population of wild dogs and the Big 5, which reside in the Miombo woodlands and marshy floodplains.
