Siwandu Camp

Selous Game Reserve

Days 1 - 3: Selous Game Reserve

Siwandu Camp Location Map

Siwandu Camp (previously known as Selous Safari Camp) is delightfully situated within an open palm forest on the shores of Lake Nzerakera, a massive lake adjoining the Great Rufiji River.  There are no fences so animals may wander freely through the camp and often do. Hippos moving through the camp are a nightly occurence and elephant frequently meander between the tents. The African sound of whooping hyenas and bellowing hippos is a constant background medley throughout the night. The area is also one of the best in East Africa to see wild dog.

The camp offers an exceptionally large array of activities to choose from be it by boat, vehicle or foot, and the guides will personally tailor all activities to suit each guest so that they get the most out of the reserve in the time they have available.

The camp as a whole is comprised of 2 separate camps, North (4 tents) and South (6 tents). In this way, there is never the feeling of having too many people around. Each camp has its own swimming pool, well stocked bar and dining area, and each has its own well supplied kitchen where the chefs produce the finest cuisine. All meals are complimented by a good wine selection.

All the spacious safari tents are widely spaced along the lake shore ensuring maximum privacy and wonderful views. Each tent is en-suite, and sits atop its own raised timber platform with a large verandah where you can sit with a cup of tea in the morning watching the bush come to life at sunrise, or nursing a gin and tonic as the bush gets ready for the night at sunset. Every room has a personal butler who is assigned to you for the duration of your stay.

For that intimate, quiet, wild feeling, Siwandu Camp is perfect for forgetting all the troubles of the modern world and immersing ones self in nature with just the right amount of luxury in a very remote wild location.

Jongomero Camp

Ruaha National Park

Days 4 - 6: Ruaha National Park

Jongomero Camp Location Map

Superbly isolated right in the heart of the Ruaha National Park lies Jongomero Camp. Situated on the banks of a seasonal sand river which bears the same name, and blending in beautifully with its surroundings, the camp is tucked away among some shady riverine vegetation.  Being the only camp situated in this area of the Park ensures unmatched privacy and a true wilderness experience.

Game drives go out twice per day, in the morning and afternoon.  All game drives are driven by qualified guides in an open 4x4 Land Rovers with a canopy for shade and no more than 6 guests per vehicle. Daily bush walks can also be arranged (at an additional cost) for those who want to get as close to nature as possible.  For those with a truly wild heart, perhaps have a go at fly-camping; a one or 2 day expedition on foot through the reserve, sleeping in a small fly-camp or satellite camp.

Or if a break from a hectic schedule is called for then just relax in or around the swimming pool and enjoy the wildlife. Birds constantly flutter through the camps trees, and elephants frequently enter the camp and can be viewed without even getting out of the swimming pool.  For those interested in the stars, the camp has its own high powered telescope.

Accommodation at Jongomero comprises 8 large and well-appointed tented suites, all built on raised wooden platforms and under enormous thatched roofs that also encompass a spacious private veranda.  The tents are spread out on the edge of the sand river which is often used by a multitude of different animals to make their way to the river system for water.

The main dining and living areas are both original and very comfortable, and offer a great vantage to take in the sights and sounds of the African bush that surrounds the camp.
