Combining time in Zanzibar with a safari in Selous is ideal especially when you are looking for a beach and bush experience. And if you are looking for a short safari from Zanzibar then Nyerere National Park (part of the formerly Selous Game Reserve) located in the southern part of Tanzania offers the best escape from the large tourist crowds in the northern safari destinations like Serengeti and Ngorongoro while offering you a remarkable wildlife experience. There are many activities to do in Nyerere National Park including game drives, walking safari, boat safari in the mighty Rufiji River, bush walks, and village tours.
