From the moment you arrive at the camp you are treated to a level of unpretentious, quality and service that way beyond our expectations. Anne Marie and her team were amazing. The attention to detail was superb. Cold towels and chilled sherry on arrival back from safaris, coffee and biscuits in bed every morning. Surprise breakfast on the river bank... More

We loved the bush experiance combined with all the pleasures of home. Activities included a Sundowner Boat safari, Exlilirating Game Drives and a breath takingly... More

From our arrival to our departure at the camp, we were made to feel very welcome and had an amazing stay. It is really hard to pinpoint things that were particularly good as it was all wonderful, but the following were just some of the things that made our 4-night stay so memorable: - Jenny, Emiel, Gerald and the other...

The place is total luxury Jenny and her team do a fantastic job of making you feel welcome We spent 3 nights at Selous Safari Camp and loved every second of it. My only complaint is they keep offering you food. Not a place to loose weight More

We spent 3 nigths/2 days at the Selous Safari Camp and can fully confirm what the other visitors have written. It is just amazing. Perhaps the following as additional information. The camp has two sites about 10 minutes from each other. We stayed at the camp headed by Gerald. Suppose that the other camp has the same features. More

I have just returned from a 3 day/3 night trip to Selous Safari Company. I was visiting there with my parents and we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience, the location and the animals. There is a lot of time and attention spent to the details and making your time enjoyable and relaxed, from the morning wake up call with coffee... More

The guides are amazing... More

Selous was the fourth of six stops on our safari tour of Tanzania. We enjoyed it immensely and would return anytime. We were met at the "airport" (A hut and a dirt runway.) by Gerald and taken to the camp. Everything was explained and we were introduced to our food steward, Said, and our butler, Metaska. These two completely looked... More
