Zanzibar – Nyerere Park/Selous Game Reserve
1 Hour Flight
You’ll lightly touch down at a convenient airstrip near the park. Waiting for you will be your Hidaya Africa Tours & Travel driver/guide who will take your bags and bring you to your own 4 x 4 Land Cruiser Jeep, for the quick drive to the park.
We’ll get settled at our accommodation and set off in our 4 x 4 for our first game drive. The rainforests, woodlands, and plains of the park are alive with wildlife – impala, antelope, giraffe, buffalo, rhino, and the big cats – lions, leopards, and cheetahs.
We’ll pause for a coffee break and see which wildlife we can spot as we relax in this beautiful natural setting.
Then we’re off for more animal spotting before we take lunch around noon. Nothing beats dining out in the bush and we’ll enjoy our meal at a hearty table set out for us.
The afternoon will find us traveling over the plains, past forests, and waterways spotting herds of antelope, elephants, giraffes, and more. You can’t miss the birdlife here, well over 400 species including eagles, vultures, storks, kingfishers, ibis, and so many others.
Toward late afternoon, we’ll head back to our safari lodge.
We will spend the evening at our Nyerere lodge or tented camp.
