Selous Safari Camp

Selous Safari Camp What a wonderful camp! I only had one night here and wished for many more. The tents are incredibly spacious and luxurious and the open air showers are entirely unique. The food was out of this world! I was wonderfully accommodated by the managers Dumi, Sarah and Jilly. My safari activities were run by equally good guides. I loved lying in my tent at night hearing an elephant outside and who knows what else! This is truly a top end camp and will surely make your safari experience a very special one.
