Selous

Being located on the humid coastal plateau and with the great Rufiji river winding its way through the heart of the landscape, Selous has an unusually languid atmosphere. This is a very high quality game area, with superb birdlife along the river, good populations of elephant, lion and some decent packs of wilddog.

The reserve naturally lends itself to a slower pace of safari ... flying in to luxury camps, spending days out on the river, with early and late game-drives punctuated by lunches and siestas.

At the top end Sand Rivers Camp is generally considered to be the leading lodge, just ahead of Selous Safari Camp. In the mid-range both Lake Manze Camp and Impala Camp offer good value.
