the atmosphere of the place is impeccable, beautiful landscape, friendly environment, kind and prepared staff. we could hear the hippos at night, monkeys were running around the yard in the morning. the food was delicious, the manager happily fulfilled any request we had.
and the way they welcomed us.... if you come, you will experience it too. :)
i recommend it to everyone from the bottom of my heart!

Amazing time in Selous
5/5

Had a 4 day tour with Mapumziko Lodge. Communication went very well and easy. They adapted the schedule to my wishes. During my stay they made sure I felt comfortable and that everything went fine. Accomodation is basic, but everything you need is there: hot water, good beds, blankets, a fan, ... And all the tents have views on the river. At night they serve diner next to the campfire, great atmosphere.
Excellent expierence!

5/5

Amazing stay at Mapumziko Lodge with my daughter! The staff were incredibly kind and caring, the food was excellent, and the place felt truly authentic. We loved seeing the monkeys and other wildlife around the lodge. Everything was perfectly organized by Franklin. One of my best travel experiences ever !

Satisfying
5/5

Franklin was a very nice young guide and we really had a satisfying experience with him. We saw incredibly views like from the lion king movie and of course hippos, giraffes, elephants and LIONs. I was able to contact him easily through whatsapp and he would respond quick. Very good value for money compared to other out there. This safari is mainly for adventurous people that like to wake up early. For improvement I recommend him allthough he answered to my messages he could send me more details and info beforehand, like plane tickets, for the customer to feel safe. Also it would be great that he add the whole schedule in the pdf. (6 am plane, 7-16 safari, 17 lodge 20 dinner, next day 6 morning bush walk, 8 breakfast, 10 boat safari, masai village visit back zanzibar…)

I love this experience
5/5

I loved this place, the people are very friendly, they treat you very well, the safari through the savannah was incredible, and the next day we went on a safari by the river and I loved it, what I liked the most was visiting the local tribe called Massais who welcomed us As if we were family, the best experience of my life
