This Selous safari camp is located within an open palm forest on the shores of Lake Nzerakera, a massive lake adjoining the Great Rufiji River in the Selous Game Reserve, Tanzania. This Tanzania safari lodge is located at the centre of this unique riverine and lake complex, with the highest concentration of African wildlife and myriad bird life. There are no fences at this camp in Selous Game Reserve, allowing African wildlife to wander freely through the camp.
Selous Game Reserve is named after the legendary 19th century English hunter-explorer Frederick Courtney Selous, whose African adventure books became best sellers in Victorian England. It remains a reserve that attracts the more intrepid and adventurous explorer as it is off the beaten track of the main tourist routes.
