On arrival, check into your lodge along the Rufigi River and have lunch. In the afternoon, go for a boat safari up the river to see hippopotamus, crocodiles, birds, and other mammals refreshing by the river banks.

You could also observe local fishermen setting their nets and children bathing in the river, among others. With ecstatic views of wildlife, the calm breeze on the river, and the beautiful sunset, expect to have an exhilarating experience on this 2 to 3-hour boat ride. Thereafter, return to your lodge and have dinner.

Today is a full day of safari game viewing in Nyerere National Park with full-day game drives. After a nice breakfast, you set out in the bush with your packed lunch. Selous, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offers unparalleled opportunities for animal encounters: the reserve is home to enthralling herds of elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, antelopes, and a variety of predators including lions, cheetahs, leopards, and African wild dogs.

In Nyerere, you have the opportunity to follow the herds of animals off the roads, into their natural habitats, giving you the best opportunity of capturing the finest shots. After the morning game drive, you will relax and later have your packed lunch before proceeding on to the afternoon game drive.
