For those with little time to relax it makes sense to avoid long road journeys by flying. The Selous is just an hour’s flight from Dar and offers some of the most spectacular game viewing in the country. Here walking safaris are limited to those over 12 years old but boat and driving safaris can be enjoyed by all age groups. Flying into the Selous gives you a unique view of the Reserve and the mighty Rufiji River. We can vary the accommodation to suit your budget as you prefer – please just let us know.
