Nyerere National Park

National Park Selous-Nyerere Ecosystem, Tanzania

About Nyerere National Park

Africa's largest game reserve turned national park, Nyerere (formerly Selous) offers boat safaris on the Rufiji River alongside game drives, with far fewer vehicles than the Northern Circuit.

Best Time to Visit

The best time to visit depends on the type of experience you want. For wildlife safaris, the dry season is often preferred because animals are easier to spot around water sources. Green season can also be beautiful, with fewer crowds and lush landscapes.
