Nyerere and Southern Tanzania Safaris

The Nyerere National park is the largest in Tanzania, covering 30,893km2 of pristine wilderness. The park supports a wide variety of wildlife including elephant, lion, leopard, hippo, buffalo, giraffe, crocodile and many antelope and bird species. Ruaha National Park is Tanzania’s second largest, covering 14,800 sq kms, and home to huge herds of elephant and buffalo.

Selous and southern Tanzania

Ruaha National Park is Tanzania’s second largest, covering nearly 15,000 sq kms, and home to huge herds of elephant and buffalo. The central spine of the park is the watershed between the Nzombe and Ruaha rivers, with a dramatic escarpment, above which lie enormous stretches of miombo woodland. The dry climate means that certain species not found elsewhere in Tanzania, such as the greater kudu, can be seen in Ruaha, a hidden gem.
