About Nyerere

Did you know that Selous Game Reserve / Nyerere National Park is the biggest Game Reserve in Africa?

Just a 45-minute flight from Dar es Salaam, the Selous Game Reserve, now called Nyerere National Park, is perfect for a safari-beach combo with Zanzibar. Africa’s largest and oldest reserve, it’s rich in wildlife, including Africa’s largest wild dog population. Despite the controversy surrounding a hydro-electric dam project, it remains distant from the main camps. The park offers diverse activities like boating, walking safaris, and fly camping, alongside traditional game drives.

Visiting Zanzibar or Dar Es Salaam? Selous Game Reserve is just a short flight away. Daily flights from Zanzibar take you to Africa’s largest game reserve in just 50 minutes, transporting you directly into the heart of stunning wilderness and incredible wildlife.
