Perfectly situated on the banks of the mighty Rufiji River, and right on the border of the Nyerere National Park, Selous River Camp offers breathtaking views, authenticity and value for money in a stunning setting. This unique camp’s accommodation features riverview “Mudhut” rooms, forest bandas and some comfortable canvas safari tents, dotted in the dappled shade of the camp’s woodland. A variety of safaris are on offer, giving you the choice of how you want to uncover the Selous and experience its wildlife. Walking into the shared guest area upon arrival is a real ‘wow’ moment. Overlooking the river, the centrally-situated bar and dining area are perfect for enjoying sundowners; and the camp’s sparkling riverbank swimming pool provides views of the seasonal hippo pods below.
Discover the Nyerere National Park's wildlife accompanied by your knowledgeable safari guide. Encounter abundant wildlife on unhurried game drives in custom-made 4x4 safari vehicles, explore the Rufiji river and palm-fringed lakes of the Selous on tranquil boat safaris.Property Name: Selous River Camp
