The oldest of the camps in Selous, and with one of
the prime locations, Rufiji River has been looking after visitors to Selous
for as long as people have taken safaris there. There are twenty en-suite
tents laid out along the riverbank, with panoramic views of the sunset and
the river, and a coterie of wildlife passing along the river or through the
camp each day. A swimming pool, library, mess area and the Tuscan kitchen
of the Italian management have all been developed recently to make Rufiji
River Camp a very affordable introduction to the time-honoured style of the
east African safari
Imagine a confusion of nature
of such intensity that crocodiles vie with coral reefs, lions roar at lionfish
and baboons bound along the beach. Now you can live at Saadani Safari Lodge,
where river, beach and bush have been thrown together in a clash of colourful
ecosystems found nowhere else on the Eastern Coast of Africa. Neaty
described in the visitors book as “a symbiosis of luxury and nature”
the enthusiasm for nature here is infectious. The warmth of service and the
comfort provide the perfect backdrop from which you can relax and adventure
through Saadani National park’s extraordinary diverse scenery and wildlife..
