In the heart of Africa, where the Rufiji River winds through vast plains and lush woodlands, Nyerere National Park whispers tales of untamed beauty and wildlife in their natural splendor.
Nyerere National Park – At 30,893 square kilometers, the vast Nyerere National Park is Africa’s largest stand alone National Park and one of the largest in the world.
The park is located in south Eastern Tanzania, roughly 230 kilometers by road from Dar es Salaam city to Mtemere Gate, and was carved out from the Selous Game reserve, a huge wilderness area and safari destination in Southern Tanzania.
