Your Tailor-Made
Luxury Safaris in Nyerere Park

Experience True Wilderness in One of the Most, Remote Parks.

Nyerere National Park: A Vast Wilderness of Land, Water & Wildlife

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Nyerere National Park is Tanzania’s largest safari destination, offering a unique mix of land and water-based wildlife experiences. Spanning an area four times the size of the Serengeti, it features rolling plains, woodlands, and a vast network of waterways, all fed by the Rufiji River.

The park is a stronghold for wild dogs, holding one-third of the world’s population and some of Africa’s largest giraffe herds. Wildlife is abundant, especially during the dry season (June–October) when animals congregate around the Rufiji River. The hotter months (November–March) provide excellent opportunities for predator sightings and newborn animals, though temperatures rise significantly.

Nyerere stands out as East Africa’s only destination for boat safaris, offering a completely different perspective of the wild. Guests can also enjoy game drives, walking safaris, fly camping, and natural hot springs, making it one of Tanzania’s most diverse safari experiences.

Conveniently connected by direct flights from Dar es Salaam, Nyerere is easily combined with Zanzibar, Mafia Island, or Fanjove Island for a seamless bush-and-beach escape. Flights also link the park to Ruaha and the Serengeti, making it a must-visit for a comprehensive Tanzania safari.
