This 5 Days Exclusive Fly-In Safari from Zanzibar to Nyerere National Park is designed for travelers who seek a private, immersive, and luxurious adventure
in Tanzania’s largest protected reserve. Staying at Selous Kulinda Camp in a private tent, you’ll experience the untamed wilderness of Nyerere in style, with personalized activities and intimate encounters with nature.
The program offers a carefully balanced mix of private game drives, boat safaris, guided bush walks, and cultural visits, giving you multiple perspectives on the region’s wildlife and heritage. From elephants roaming the savannah to hippos and crocodiles in the Rufiji River, the safari promises encounters with Africa’s most iconic species in their natural habitats.
Your adventure begins with a morning flight from Zanzibar to Nyerere National Park. Upon arrival, your private guide will transfer you to Selous Kulinda Camp, where your exclusive tent awaits along the scenic Rufiji River. After settling in, enjoy a welcome lunch and relax as you prepare for the days of adventure ahead.
In the evening, take in the breathtaking views of the river while enjoying a gourmet dinner. The peaceful surroundings and sounds of the wild will set the perfect tone for your safari.
After breakfast, head out on a full-day private game drive, designed exclusively for you. With your guide, you’ll explore different ecosystems ranging from open savannah to woodlands and lakes, with a chance to see elephants, giraffes, buffalo, and predators such as lions and leopards.
Midday, enjoy a picnic lunch in the bush, surrounded by nature. Your private vehicle ensures flexibility, allowing you to focus on wildlife encounters that match your interests before returning to camp in the evening.
Today begins with a private boat safari on the Rufiji River, where you’ll spot hippos, crocodiles, and abundant birdlife up close. The boat safari offers an unmatched perspective of the park, as elephants and other animals often come to the riverbanks to drink.
In the afternoon, you can choose to take part in an optional guided bush walk with an experienced ranger, offering a more intimate connection with the land and its smaller wildlife. Return to the camp for a relaxed dinner under the stars.
This day is designed for a slower pace. Spend the morning at leisure, enjoying the serenity of the camp, or join a cultural visit to a nearby village to learn about local traditions and ways of life. For bird lovers, a guided birdwatching activity is also available, as Nyerere is home to over 440 species.
The afternoon is free for relaxation, giving you time to enjoy the camp’s amenities, sip sundowners by the river, and watch the sunset over the wilderness.
On your final morning, set out on a short private game drive, capturing last sightings of the park’s wildlife and landscapes. It’s the perfect way to conclude your safari with lasting impressions of Tanzania’s raw beauty.
Afterwards, transfer to the airstrip for your flight back to Zanzibar, where your journey ends. You’ll arrive back on the island with unforgettable memories of an exclusive safari experience in Nyerere National Park.
A Tanzania safari adventure is more than just a trip—it’s a life-changing experience that immerses you in the raw beauty of nature, diverse wildlife, and rich cultural heritage. Exploring Tanzania’s vast landscapes, from the iconic Serengeti to the majestic Ngorongoro Crater, allows you to witness the Great Migration, encounter the Big Five, and connect with nature in its purest form.
Beyond wildlife, a safari in Tanzania offers a profound cultural exchange. Engaging with the Maasai and other indigenous communities provides insight into traditional ways of life, enriching your travel experience. Whether you seek adventure, relaxation, or personal transformation, a Tanzania safari is an unforgettable journey that leaves a lasting impact.
A private Tanzania safari adventure offers an exclusive and personalized experience, allowing you to explore the country’s breathtaking landscapes and extraordinary wildlife at your own pace.

Beyond the personalized experience, a private safari enhances comfort, privacy, and intimacy, making it ideal for couples, families, or small groups seeking a more secluded and luxurious journey. This level of exclusivity not only elevates your safari experience but also fosters a profound connection with Tanzania’s untamed beauty.
