Sand Rivers Selous is an epic base for exploring the wonders of Nyerere National Park, but it's also a pretty lovely setting for soaking up some rays and enjoying the peace and quiet of the wild.
Our large open-fronted cottages are raised on high concrete platforms that bring sweeping views across the river and beyond.
…with wide-screen technicolour views across an iconic African riverbank - and a pretty perfect spot for watching the sun go down on another day out in the wild.
All Sand Rivers rooms have spacious en-suite bathrooms with flush toilets, powerful showers and a view to cleanse the soul.
If you're going to contemplate life, you might as well do it from your private plunge pool overlooking the Great Rufiji River at Sand Rivers Selous.
…in the Great Rufiji River in a part of the park no one else knows, we've a patch of paradise that lends itself to every kind of adventure you can imagine.
Afternoons spent at Sand Rivers. A good book and a wild view, what more could you need?
The sun setting over the horizon, drinks are on ice and your family and friends in one very special place.

Sweet dreams are indeed made of this.

Magical Experience
Such a magical experience. I have been on safari before and traveled a lot (both on a budget and luxury) - this was truly extraordinary and magical and the best by a considerable margin.

Sand Rivers, Nyerere is a wonderful camp with glorious views of the River. Bernadette and the team make you extremely welcome and go out of their way to ensure that you have a memorable stay. Meals are delicious and very well presented. There is a large amount of game to be seen in the surrounding area and the river is an added bonus with boat trips available and fishing. Our guide was excellent and we enjoyed drinks in the bush and a bush breakfast. We were sad to leave.
