Set on the banks of the Rufiji River in Tanzania’s vast Nyerere National Park, Sand Rivers Safari Camp offers a front-row seat to one of Africa’s most wildlife-rich wilderness areas. Designed to make the most of its spectacular riverside setting, the camp’s open-fronted spaces and elevated position create uninterrupted views across the ever-changing river landscape.
Originally established by Nomad Tanzania founder Richard Bonham, Sand Rivers has earned a reputation as one of the country’s most iconic safari lodges. The camp is particularly known for its flexible, adventure-led approach to safari, allowing guests to explore by vehicle, boat and on guided walking safaris. The surrounding Nyerere National Park is home to large populations of elephants, lions, buffalo, hippos and prolific birdlife, making it a superb destination for wildlife enthusiasts.
Life at Sand Rivers centres around the Rufiji River, with activities ranging from boat safaris and fishing excursions to bush walks and remote fly-camping experiences under the stars. Despite its remote setting, the camp offers a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere, with spacious guest areas, river-view dining and a swimming pool overlooking the water.
