Nestled along the meandering Rufiji River in the vast Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous Game Reserve), Rufiji River Camp is a tranquil safari retreat offering an authentic, off-the-beaten-path experience in southern Tanzania. The camp’s location provides stunning views of the river, often dotted with hippos and crocodiles, and is perfectly situated for game drives, boat safaris, and walking excursions within one of Africa’s largest protected wildlife areas.

Constructed with locally sourced materials, the camp blends seamlessly with the natural environment, offering a rustic charm paired with comfort. Each tented room faces the river, allowing guests to enjoy wildlife sightings right from their private verandas. Evenings at Rufiji River Camp are magical – the setting sun paints the sky while the nocturnal calls of the wild echo through the bush.
