Day 1

Dar es Salaam – Arrival in Selous & Sunset Boat Safari

Dar es Salaam – Arrival in Selous & Sunset Boat Safari

Your adventure begins with an early morning pick-up from your hotel or airport in Dar es Salaam. Enjoy a scenic drive through rural Tanzania, passing traditional villages, palm-fringed landscapes and vast open plains as you make your way to Selous Game Reserve.

Arrive at Selous Kinga Lodge in the early afternoon and check into your comfortable room overlooking the wild bush. After a refreshing lunch break, relax for a while either by swimming at the lodge or walking around. Later, head out for a sunset boat safari along the Rufiji River, one of Selous’ most iconic experiences.

Cruise gently along the river as hippos grunt nearby, birdsong fills the air (special for bird watchers), crocodiles bask on the banks, and elephants come to drink as the golden sun dips below the horizon. Enjoy the peaceful sounds of nature and the glowing reflections on the water, a picture-perfect African sunset.

You will be transferred back to Selous Kinga Lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
