Travel in Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous GR) is safe in our view. Crime against visitors is rare in Tanzania and the little crime that does occur mostly happens in major urban centers, similar to the rest of the world. When visiting cities during your trip you should take normal safety precautions (see ‘Cities & Urban Areas: Safety Precautions’ below).
Wildlife viewing in Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous GR) is best from late June to October. It is Dry season and wildlife is easier to spot since animals gather at water sources and vegetation is thinner. The scenery is lush and green in the Wet season, from October to May, but afternoons can be unbearably hot. Many lodges close from March through May.
The best time to visit Selous Game Reserve is from June to October which also ranks as the peak tourist season in Tanzania.
