The sheer volume of game in the Nyerere is just outstanding.

The river has been designated as a photographic zone and is a popular tourist destination.

Elephants, buffalos, lions, zebras and Impalas are found in greater numbers, and the park together with the remaining part of Selous has the last true stronghold for African wild-dogs

Visitors to this vast park will be able to enjoy the widest diversity of safari activities in the country, like boating safaris as well as standard game drives, walking safaris and legendary fly camping trips.
