SELOUS GAME RESERVE HOLIDAYS


Covering 50,000 square kilometres, the Selous Game Reserve is one of the largest protected areas in Africa and as such it remains largely undisturbed by human impact. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to one of the most significant concentrations of important species including elephant, black rhinoceros, cheetah, giraffe, hippopotamus and crocodile.

The diversity in habitats makes the Selous Game Reserve a valuable arena for studying on-going ecological and biological processes. The variety in landscapes spans Miombo woodlands, open grasslands, riverine forests and swamps. Due to the sheer size of this reserve, there are limitless sites that will stay with you forever. Some highlights include the Rufiji River - the largest river in Tanzania, which flows through the reserve creating many different channels and lakes which form a central role throughout this amazing place.

Selous is almost twice the size of Belgium and four times larger than the famous Serengeti in the North, covering 5% of Tanzania’ s land area. The Selous’ ecosystem as a whole is made up of a few conservation areas, namely Mikumi in the North and the Kilombero game controlled area in the West, covering in total over 90,000 sq km of pristine wilderness devoid of human influence.
