We absolutely loved our 6-day Nyerere and Mikumi safari combo! It provided a fantastic variety of experiences. Nyerere's river safaris were unique, and then Mikumi offered incredible open plains game viewing. The transitions between parks were well-managed, and our guide was superb, sharing so much knowledge about the animals and ecosystem. This trip was perfectly paced for our family. We felt we got a comprehensive safari experience, and the value was exceptional.

Selous Magic: Boat and Game Drives
Maria K. · Germany · 28 Apr 2026

The 3-day Selous Game Reserve safari was truly special. The boat safari on the Rufiji River was unlike anything I've experienced – so many hippos and crocodiles! The game drives were also excellent, with our guide expertly finding lions and wild dogs. It's a vast and wild place, offering a more remote feel than some other parks. The lodge was comfortable and set in a beautiful location. Highly recommend this itinerary for a taste of southern Tanzania's unique wildlife.
