Sand Rivers Selous Camp Summary
Set along the banks of the mighty Rufiji River is the majestic Sand Rivers Selous Camp. This luxury safari camp is in the perfect location for exploring the vast untamed wilderness of the Selous Game Reserve.
Sand Rivers Selous Camp offers excellent, friendly service synonymous with a Tanzania Safari and exceptional activities. One of the highlights of a stay at Sand Rivers Selous Camp is a boat cruise up the mighty Rufiji River to Steiglers Gorge. View massive crocodiles sunning themselves on the sand banks and pod after pod of Hippo wallowing in the shallow water. During the dry season a lot of the wildlife come to drink from the fast flowing Rufiji River as water becomes non existent in the surrounding bush, this makes for exceptional game viewing. Leopard sightings are also not uncommon near Steiglers Gorge.
