Overview
Sand rivers is both expedition base and safari retreat. it's still one of the smallest camps in the selous, but it's big on comfort, style and safari adventure.
Life at Sand Rivers is relaxed and while you're with us we'll work with you to plan your days as you go. This is an area we know and love, and it matters to us that you get to see the best of it.
But many of our guests quickly realise that a few hours spent relaxing on the verandahs of their open-fronted rooms, or cooling off in the pool, surrounded by Kingfishers and Bee Eaters, listening to the grunts of hippos on the river, can be time equally well spent.
Quite simply, it will probably be one of the best holidays I have ever had.
- Sand Rivers Selous. Trip Advisor review, July 5, 2011.
We designed our 8 open-fronted rooms here for maximum comfort - wonderful beds, plenty of space and probably the best showers you'll have come across for a while - but we didn't want to lose that connection with the African bush which has so inspired us.
Which is why each room has panoramic views out over the river, why we go to great trouble to make sure that the only noises you hear are those of the wildlife and why we took particular care to make the most of the natural light, space and cooling breeze that comes off in the water.
