Water-Safari Wilderness on Lake Nzerakera
Laba Siwandu enjoys an exceptional location on the banks of Lake Nzerakera, in the vast wilderness of Nyerere National Park — the immense reserve carved from the former Selous. This is one of Tanzania's great water-safari destinations, where the Rufiji river system and its lakes add a different dimension to the classic game drive.
The signature experience is a boat safari amid a ballet of hippos, with crocodiles basking on the banks and extraordinary birdlife along the water's edge. Combine it with game drives and walking safaris through palm-fringed channels and open woodland for a richly varied stay, well off the beaten track.
