Tanzania safari to the stunning Selous Game Reserve. An opportunity to enjoy some spectacular game viewing in the largest game reserve in Africa covering an area the size of Switzerland. The Selous Game Reserve is possibly Africa's last great wilderness. Despite its size, however, this UNESCO World Heritage site has only a handful of high-end safari camps, allowing it to maintain a low-impact exclusivity that is granted by few parks elsewhere. Opportunities for foot safaris and game walks, boat explorations and the classic 4WD safari in open vehicles add a further unique element to the Selous safari and ensure its reputation for pure bush adventure remains untarnished by volume.
