Selous Wildlife Lodge – The Facts

Selous Wildlife Lodge - The Detail

A separate dining area and guest lounge overlook the natural water hole, all complemented by an outside viewing deck & infinity swimming pool. Enormous trees & lush dense vegetation invite natural elements & one may enjoy unique sightings from the comfort of your tent deck. The spectrum of wildlife here is diverse, all the more interesting because its southern location attracts a unique combination of East and Southern African wildlife, both resident and migratory, and particularly a curious and colorful assortment of over 440 known species of birds. The intricate waterways and tributaries of the Rufiji River Delta attract a healthy population of elephant, and are packed full of grunting hippopotami and yawning crocodile that lumber ominously into the water at the first sound of a boat. The banks attract different sized herds of plains game depending on the season, as herds disperse after the rains and then regroup when the water sources concentrate and they are forced to venture into the open to drink, so risking predator attacks with the protection of the crowd.
