Arrival in Selous Impala Tented Camp
Arrival in Selous Impala Tented Camp
Your thrilling safari adventure begins when you start your trip and you arrive at the Selous Impala Tented Camp, right on the Rufiji River.
When you are refreshed, a local Masai warrior will escort you to your room. Selous is not a fenced camp, so we are visited by all of the animals in the park, and the Masai are experienced at avoiding contact with wild animals.
You can relax in your room, swim in the camp’s pool, or gather in our main lodge and relax or read from our extensive library of books until dinner time or until it is time for one of your scheduled activities. It is also possible to enjoy some birdwatching at any time when you are at the campsite as birds are so abundant at Selous.

Full-Day Game Drive Within Nyerere National Park
Early in the morning, you will start a full-day game drive within Nyerere N/Park.
You will discover the area from Lake Mzizi, Mia, Lake Siwandu, Lake Nzelekela, Lake Manze, and Lake Tagalala.
We will have the unique option to enjoy lunch in the bushveld or along the river or a lake somewhere in the shade at the foot of a flat-top acacia tree or an ancient Baobab tree.
After a relaxing lunch, the adventure continues as you explore deeper into the reserve. You may come across a herd of elephants drinking; or a leopard, dozing high in the branches overhead. Perhaps you'll find a mama hippo with her baby, grazing in the shade; or see vultures soaring overhead and discover hyenas below, fighting over the leftovers of a kill.
Here, you
will find plenty including Elephant, Giraffe, Zebra, Warthog, Impala, and Buffalo. Before sundown, you’ll be driven back to the camp for rest, and relaxation.

Day 3
Boat Safari on the Rufijii River
Boat Safari on the Rufijii River
You will spend the morning, afternoon, or whole day (for the real enthusiast and professional photographers) on the river and nearby lakes enjoying the experience of floating along the Rufiji taking in the wildlife, on the banks of the river, crossing the river, as well as circling overhead.
On the water, the boat will navigate around herds of hippos and crocodiles, and you will see some of the bigger fish in the river breaking the surface for air or a mouthful of insects. You will also have an unusual view of the multitude of land animals wandering the river banks, drinking from the river, and even crossing the river. And, of course, there’s all the birdlife you can spot in trees and in the sky above, the carmine bee-eaters in their hollowed-out nests on the river banks, the waders scouring the shallows for morsels to eat, and the drama of a high-impact water strike from a fish eagle grabbing its prey.
