Selous Safari Camp is one of the finest luxury tented
camps in Tanzania. Lying on the banks of the Rufiji River at
Selous
Game Reserve, this is an
idyllic place from which to explore this untamed wilderness.
Each of the twelve safari tents is on its own raised
timber platform, affording guests an unmatched experience of the
African bush. The camp has the prime position at the centre of the
unique river and lake complex, with the highest concentration of
African wildlife and myriad birdlife. There are no fences and no
artificial modifications to the natural fauna and so animals wander
freely through the camp. Much as guests are encouraged to become as
one with the bush surroundings, full consideration has been given to
comfort within the camp itself.
The spacious tents are luxuriously appointed, with en
suite bathrooms and open air hot-water showers. The camp has its own
swimming pool, enabling guests to cool off in the heat of the day. The
chefs prepare the finest cuisine from a kitchen well supplied with
organic local produce.
Meals are complemented by a good selection of wines
and there is a well-stocked bar, which only closes once the last guest
has retired for the night.
Walking safaris, boat trips on the Rufiji River, game drives from open
vehicles, fishing for cat, tiger and yellow fish and visits to the
local village are available. Children welcome.
