3
Days/ 2 Night Selous Flying Safari From Dar-es-Salaam
or Zanzibar wings you to
southern Tanzania, Selous Game Reserve –
Africa's largest game reserve and one of our favorite
game viewing areas in Africa. It really is a hidden
gem!
It’s
much quieter than the Northern parks, the rivers and
lakes of the Selous are the lifeblood to a park that
hosts phenomenal volumes of game including Africa's
largest elephant and wild dog populations and probably
it's largest buffalo, hippo, crocodile and lion prides.
Selous
is untouched African wilderness and is still easily
accessible from Dar and Zanzibar. It is probably our
favorite Tanzania safari location. Home to some of Africa's
best boat safaris, walking and fly camping trips makes
the Selous the park in Tanzania with the greatest diversity
of safari activities.
It
is not only a great place for the safari enthusiast
but also an amazing introduction to un spoilt Africa.
The Selous wildlife is all the more interesting as it
attracts both east and southern African wildlife, both
resident and migratory, and over 440 known species of
birds.
Lion are particularly strong here and there are large
numbers of leopard. The park is home to over 50% of
the endangered African wild dog and also hosts very
good buffalo, giraffe, eland, hyena, sable, hippo, crocodile,
kudu, baboon, wildebeest, zebra, impala, hartebeest,
colobus and vervet monkeys along with over 450 species
of bird.
Standard game drives are permitted albeit only in the
daytime. The Selous has some of the finest boat safaris
in Africa and some of the lodges here have some of the
very best walking operations on the continent - Siwandu,
Beho Beho and Sand Rivers Selous in particular.

Welcome
To Dar es Salaam! From the international terminal, you

your flight to the Selous Game Reserve. The scheduled
flight departs Dar es Salaam at 0830 Hours and lands
in Selous at approximately 0915 Hours (45 minute flight).
Here
you will be met by our driver guide and taken back on
a short safari to your camp/ lodge in time for lunch.
Selous is Africa’s largest Game Reserve, the size
of Switzerland and one of the last great wilderness
areas on the continent. You will spend two unforgettable
nights here as well as taking full advantage of viewing
the abundant wildlife, either by boat, vehicle or on

Day 2: Explore
Selous Game Reserve
An
early morning tea or coffee will be served in your luxury
tent before breakfast and heading out, with a choice
of the following activities:
By
boat, either by following the course of the mighty Rufiji
River or exploring Lake Nzerakera; weave amongst the
pods of hippo and crocodile lining the bank and observe
game coming down to drink.
Or
Start
the day earlier on a game walk, heading out on Selous’
most privileged of experiences. Accompanied by our experienced
guide and an armed ranger, walk out into Africa’s
largest wilderness, learn about the complex eco-system
that it embraces, encounter the thrills and be enthralled
at the wonder of being at the heart of nature.
Or
Explore
the game in the surrounding areas, from your seat on
an open-sided vehicle, a comfortable and privileged
journey through the wild African bush. You can expect
to see any of the major African mammals, including elephant,
giraffes, lions, leopard and even the rare African Wild
Dog.
Return
to camp for a splendid lunch, then a difficult decision
between a siesta or a dip in the swimming pool whilst
waiting for the heat of the day to subside.
Mid
afternoon meet for a cup of tea or cooling lemonade
and scrumptious cakes under the Jackel Berry tree, and
then move onto your second safari of the day - slowly
meandering along the Rufiji River or perhaps tracking
a leopard and her cub through the woodland.
