3 Days / 2 Nights Selous (Nyerere National Park) Safari – From and Back to Zanzibar Selous Game Reserve, now officially known as Nyerere National Park, covers 5% of Tanzania’s land area—approximately 54,600 sq km—making it Africa’s largest wildlife reserve and Tanzania’s most expansive protected ecosystem. The park hosts large populations of elephants, lions, buffaloes, wild dogs, crocodiles, hippos, and an impressive variety of bird species along the famous Rufiji River. Originally named after British explorer Frederick Selous, the reserve is today proudly recognized as Nyerere National Park. This 3-day safari starts with a pickup from your hotel in Zanzibar, followed by your boat or flight to Dar es Salaam, and ends with a smooth return back to Zanzibar with a hotel drop-off. Day 1: Zanzibar – Dar es Salaam – Selous (Nyerere National Park) You will be picked up from your hotel in Zanzibar and transferred to the ferry terminal for your boat to Dar es Salaam. Upon arrival in Dar es Salaam, your guide from Kihindo Tours and Safaris will meet you at the ferry terminal for a safari briefing. You will then drive south to Selous Game Reserve, a journey of approximately 4–5 hours. On arrival, you will enjoy lunch and begin your afternoon boat safari along the Rufiji River, where you can spot hippos, crocodiles, birds, and other wildlife coming to drink by the riverbanks. Dinner and Overnight: Selous Mloka Safaris Lodge (Full Board) Day 2: Full-Day Game Drive – Selous (Nyerere National Park) After breakfast, you will depart for a full-day game drive with packed lunch.
