Niassa is on the Mozambiquan side of Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous) in southern Tanzania. This vast reserve is one of the last truly wild parts of Africa – a place to which very few people visit.

For True Safari Enthusiasts

Famous for its elephant populations and a healthy diversity of other game, Niassa is a great park for safari enthusiasts.

Niassa is located in northern Mozambique by the Tanzanian border. Logistically difficult to combine with the majority of trips to Mozambique, Niassa is a destination for safari enthusiasts only. Visitors find an absolutely vast reserve that is three times the size of the Serengeti and twice as large as the Kruger – a pristine area of true wilderness that is exceptionally rare to find nowadays.
