SELOUS GAME
RESERVE
3 nights/4 days
Selous
Game Reserve occupies an area larger than Switzerland
and is the largest protected wildlife sanctuary in the
whole of Africa.
This UN World Heritage site is a pristine wilderness of
rolling savanna woodland, grassland plains with a
network of lake and rivers. The lifeblood of the Selous
is the Rufiji River and sailing or rafting down the
river is a novel way of seeing game.
You will find an amazing concentration of wildlife
including elephant, lion, buffalo, crocodile, hippo, and
wild dog. Other species resident here are zebra, baboon,
giraffe, greater kudu, baboon, bushbuck and impala.
