FLY ZANZIBAR TO NYERERE PARK FOR 3 DAY SAFARI
Three Action-Packed Days – Walking & Boating Safaris

Starts Zanzibar/Ends Zanzibar – We’ll pick you up from your hotel and transfer you to nearby Abeid Karume International Airport for your morning flight to Arusha.

You’ve heard about Tanzania’s biggest reserve, Nyerere National Park, and want to see for yourself these immense fields and forests teeming with wildlife.

So just how large is this new park, carved out from the vast Selous Game Reserve? Well, it’s bigger than the Masai Mara and even bigger than the Serengeti, stretching out to 30,983 sq km (11,928 sq mi). That’s more land area than dozens of countries!

And filling the park’s broad, beautiful spaces are an unheard-of number of animals: 100,000 wildebeests, 145,000 buffalos, and 250,000 impalas. Plus, huge populations of lions, leopards, and cheetahs. The variety and quantity of big and small game here simply dwarfs other parks.

But what you won’t find in Nyerere are hordes of other safari-goers as the park is still fairly unknown. And the wildlife is not accustomed to human presence.

Everything Is Larger in Nyerere

Even its rivers – the park’s primary waterway, the Rufiji River, is the largest in the country, and the source of a network of lakes and marshes throughout the park.

During the dry season from June through October, it is also the lifeblood for the park’s uncountable wildlife who come to the river to drink. We’ll visit the river to watch the zebras, giraffes, hartebeest, impala, elephants, monkeys and more quench their thirst at the banks of the Rufiji.

The river is also home to great numbers of crocodiles and a fantastic population of hippos, said to be around 40,000.

Walking and Boating Safaris

Now that you have a picture of Nyerere’s many wildlife possibilities, here are several more: Our 3-Day safari includes a walking safari with a native bushman guide to show you the flora and fauna close-up on a relaxed hike, a truly sensory experience!

We will also visit a Maasai village to meet and learn about these ancient pastoral people.

You’ll see lots of the park from your 4 x 4 safari Jeep, but for another perspective, nothing is quite as exciting as a boat safari on the mighty Rufiji River for getting near the aquatic life and spotting land animals as well.

It’s one of the few places in Africa where you can have this experience. During this sunset water cruise, you should spot hippos, and monkeys moving through the trees on the banks of the river. We’ll glide past birdlife such as heron, kingfisher, eagle, and bee-eaters.

It’s An Easy Trip To The Park

One of the most fun aspects of taking a safari like this is the ease of getting there – just a one-hour flight from the beaches of Zanzibar to an airstrip near the park.  We’ll pick you up from your hotel and bring you to the airport for your scenic morning flight.

Landing near Nyerere Park, your Natural World Kenya Safaris driver/guide will be there with a private 4 x 4 Land Cruiser Jeep. Just imagine: an hour ago you were at one of the world’s most beautiful beaches, now you’re about to step into one of the world’s most beautiful and exciting parks.
