Smooth experience
5/5

An amazing time , great place to visit. Guided by a very friendly staff. The drive and the tour guide were great crack. I strongly recommend the tour.

Excellent
5/5

We contacted the company for a last minute safari, booking on Monday for a Wednesday departure. Selous Explorer were highly responsive and communicative which is something I value. The safari was great value for money compared to other companies I had viewed. We really enjoyed the cruise on the river and our guides for the game drive were so helpful and friendly and we saw all the animals we had wanted to see. It was really amazing. The staff in the lodge were attentive and the food was delicious. We enjoyed having breakfast in the mornings with monkeys overhead and hippos visible in the river. I would highly recommend.

Traveling Solo, Feeling at Home with Selous Explorer
5/5

An absolutely amazing experience! Everything was perfectly organized – always punctual, always on time, and surrounded by such kind and friendly people.
The lodge, right in front of the river, offers a breathtaking view and such a peaceful atmosphere. The local food was varied, fresh, and simply delicious.

The safari guides were incredible – very gentle, attentive, and always making every effort to fulfill even the smallest requests. They were genuinely listening and open to conversations, which made the experience even more special.

I traveled alone, and not once did I feel uncomfortable or out of place with this agency. On the contrary, I felt safe, welcomed, and well taken care of throughout the entire trip.

This agency truly deserves full trust. I recommend it with all my heart, and I would happily choose them again. Don’t hesitate for a second – go for it, you will absolutely love it!

5/5

We saw a lot of animals , we would like do see leopard but not possible. But the price is good for what we did

The operator provided excellent organization, though food and accommodation needs improvment
4/5

Transport: Perfect. Our guide Nestor managed the flights Zanzibar → Selous → Dar es Salaam very smoothly, always punctual and reliable.

Safari: Very good. Comfortable 4x4 just for the two of us. Nestor was attentive, and we managed to see the “Big 3” (elephants, lions, buffalos), though no rhinos in Selous.

Accommodation: Lodges were adequate (mosquito nets, hot water), but overall quite basic with limited comfort and no extra amenities or blankets. We chose to spend the third night in a Dar es Salaam hotel instead.

Food: Could definitely be improved, lacked variety and quality.

Staff: Khadidja and Clara, along with the rest of the lodge team, were very kind and attentive. However, the lack of English skills made communication sometimes difficult.


Overall: Excellent organization and safari thanks to Nestor, but accommodation and especially food would need improvement.
