THE ENDLESS PLAINS
Selous Game Reserve (Nyerere National Park)
Serengeti National Park, a sprawling expanse of over 14,763 square kilometers, is a globally acclaimed UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Tanzania’s crown jewels. Famous for its unmatched biodiversity, the park hosts an incredible array of wildlife, including the Big Five and the iconic Great Migration of over two million wildebeests and zebras. Serengeti has received numerous awards and global recognition for its breathtaking landscapes and conservation efforts, making it a top destination for nature lovers and safari enthusiasts worldwide.
When to Visit Selous
The best time to visit Selous is during the dry season, from June to October, when wildlife is concentrated around the Rufiji River, making it easier to spot animals. The wet season, from November to May, brings lush vegetation and is ideal for birdwatching, though some roads may become challenging. This pristine wilderness provides a more off-the-beaten-path experience for those seeking solitude and a true sense of adventure.
