Luxury safari camp on the Rufiji River

Introduction

Nyerere National Park is the perfect location for old hand safari enthusiasts or the complete novice, there is a huge amount of game and bird life visible from land cruisers, on foot or by boat across this immense game reserve.

Sand Rivers Safari Camp has long boasted the prime position along the Rufiji River, the 8 spacious thatch cottages are open to the front providing an ideal viewing platform of the river below and wallowing hippo pods. The suites, situated higher up the hill than the standard cottage even have plunge pools to soak away the afternoon heat or to while away time listening to the sounds of the African bush.

The main mess area has oodles of space, comfy sofas and and picks up the river breezes and is the main meeting place at the end of the day.

The Selous is one of the great safari locations in Africa and the guides here take an off-beat view to activities mixing 4x4 game drives with some bush walking or a drift down river with a spot of fishing or exploration of backwater lagoons. This relaxed attitude yields rewarding results and ensures perfect safari experiences.
