Sand Rivers, set on the banks of the Rufiji River, beholds breathtaking views across the water and with wildlife in abundance. The outstanding service, luxury lodging and guiding make for a complete experience. Your days are spent exploring the surrounding wilderness by game drives, walks or boat trips.

This property epitomises the essence of Nyerere National Park. A seriously well-run camp that has an incredibly well-established reputation. Fantastic for walking safaris and boating trips.

All the suites are entirely open-fronted; they boast magnificent views over the river and its resident hippo. Each bedroom contains a king-size bed (equipped with mosquito nets), bedside lighting. They all have private plunge pools too! En-suite facilities include a flush toilet, washbasin -with hot and cold running water- and a walk-in shower.
