Day 1 - Sand Rivers Selous
- Fly from Dar es Salaam to our Selous airstrip, about an hour's flight. Arrive at the lodge, the drive is about 45 minutes, and settle in.
- In the afternoon we'd suggest a boat trip down the Rufiji, slowly floating downstream with a cold beer, watching the river life go by.
- Before heading back for dinner in the main lodge or around the pool.
Day 2 - Sand Rivers Selous
- Head out in the cool of the early morning and take a walk along the riverine forest; have a cook-out breakfast en route.
- After lunch we'd suggest a short game drive out towards the hide, where you can hang out and watch the game undisturbed
- The day might end with dinner on the sandbank, sitting around the fire watching the river go by.
Day 3 - Selous Fly camp
- After breakfast at the lodge, take a game drive further out into the reserve. If you want to walk for a while the car can meet you at the next stop.
- Have a picnic lunch at one of our favourite places.
- Afterwards walk or drive to the fly-camping spot for a night under the stars.
- But before you snuggle into your bedroll, we'd suggest a bit of fishing before dinner.
Day 4 - Sand Rivers Selous
- Wake early and after a full breakfast you could head off on a game drive over to the miombo forest, or leave the camp on foot; quietly creep up on elephants, silently watching them going about their daily lives.
- Walk, or drive, to the Hot Springs for an afternoon cooling off
- Before heading back to camp along the river line where you can stop for a sundowner or two and meet one of our boats which will take you back to the lodge.
Day 5 - Depart
- Lazy start with breakfast around the pool and maybe a quick swim, followed by your departure to the airport and onward flight.
