Nyerere National Park accommodations tips

Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous Game Reserve), located in southern Tanzania, is the country's biggest park. Because the park is so huge and bushy, it can be hard to spot predators on your self-drive safari, so it might be worthwhile to explore Nyerere with a guide from your lodge or pick up a park ranger from the gate.  

The main focal point of game drives for roadtrippers staying at the camps in the east is a network of rough roads to five lakes fed by the Rifiji River. Not to be missed is a boat trip along the Rufiji River, particularly in the afternoon, when the light is just magical.
