Roho ya Selous is an excellent addition to the camps and lodges of Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous), with one of the finest locations in the reserve! As well as providing superb safaris for families, the camp offers excellent active safaris, and romantic safaris too! Please note, it is closed from 16th March to 31st May every year.
The closest airstrip to Roho ya Selous is Selous Mbuyu, which is only 15–20 minutes from camp. The site occupies land on a small hill, with views of the Rufiji river and easy access to both Lake Manze and Lake Nzerakera, famous for their hippos!
The communal areas are housed in a super-stylish mess tent, featuring a stone base under elegant canvas drapes. Here, you will find comfy armchairs and sofas, coffee tables, and dining furniture, all in a sophisticated palette of earth tones and greys. There are also a few plants set out in pots on the stone area, bestowing a patio feel.
