About Nyerere National Park
Wild water country
Southern Tanzania, south-west of Dar es Salaam
Nyerere National Park is defined by the winding Rufiji River, its lakes, channels and sandbanks alive with hippo, crocodile and waterbirds.
Here discovery goes beyond the vehicle — boat and walking safaris bring you close to a landscape of palm-fringed lagoons and open woodland.
