About Selous The Selous Game Reserve is one of the principal stopping points on Tanzania's less celebrated Southern Safari Circuit. The route is increasing in popularity, especially with seasoned safari goers who are looking for a wilder experience off the beaten track, which these two offer. The Selous is Africa's largest game reserve and has few lodges, and the low number of flights to Ruaha means that you will find far fewer visitors in these parks compared to those further north giving a true feeling of getting away from it all. The game viewing is extraordinary and offers a fantastic variety of activities such as walking and boat trips. Wildlife,You will be able to see elephants, buffalos, leopards and large prides of lions as well as wild dogs. If you are lucky, you will also get to see Roans, Sables and the rare Greater Kudu. Crocodiles and hippos are found in the deeper pools and rivers. Furthermore, there are over 570 bird species recorded in the park, including migrating species from Europe, Asia, Australian rim, and Madagascar. As the Selous is a game reserve as opposed to a National Park, you can enjoy day and night drives, as well as walking safaris and boat trips al
