Relaxed luxury in pristine bush, close to the Okavango Delta
Overall rating
5/5

Of the three remarkable wildlife areas immediately west of Chobe – Kwando, Selinda and Linyanti – Selinda is arguably the best, particularly for predators such as lions, wild dogs and aardwolves. This region has gone through a series of planned and natural changes in recent years; hunting has been phased out and an old watercourse, the Selinda Spillway, has been filling with water for several rainy seasons in a row, attracting an abundance of game.
The camps here are small and exclusive with excellent, unfussy service and a strong commitment to sustainability. I particularly appreciate the emphasis on vehicle-free activities such as canoeing, mokoro trips, walking and horse riding.
