Dar es Salaam to Nyerere National Park - Boat Safari

At 8:00 am, you'll depart for Nyerere (Selous) NP. The journey to Nyerere NP will take about 4 to 4 and a half hours. You'll arrive for lunch at the lodge. After lunch, you will have a nap. Then, you will go out for an afternoon boat safari along the mighty Great Rufiji River, which starts from 4:00 pm until sunset.

Boat safari brings you into close contact with hippo, crocodile, and fantastic bird life. Animals make their way to the river to drink, and boats may approach some animals on the river banks to within a few meters. Crocodiles glide into the water as your boat approaches, and hippo appear in frightening proximity, grunting and blowing steam.
