Meals - Full Board Basis

You will leave the camp at 6.30am after breakfast. Our safari cars will drive you to the entrance gate of the Selous NP where you pick up your armed ranger before heading to the start of the walk.

Walking safaris will enable you to get close to nature and learn more about the smaller species and the bush itself. It’s an unforgettable experience to walk within such a vast and untamed area of natural reserve. Although you may spot some giraffes or walk in the footsteps of elephants, our walking safaris are tailored to give you the opportunity to learn about the things you miss from a vehicle or boat – the ecosystem that the animals live in. Learn to identify animal tracks and signs and hear fascinating information about the insects, trees and colorful bird life. Walks are slow-paced, accompanied by both an armed ranger and our expert guide and are around 2-3 hours long. After the walk, you will return to the camp and pack your stuff and head back to Dar es Salaam.
