Selinda Explorers Camp is poised in a remote, treasured location on the famous Selinda Spillway, under canopies of jackelberry and mangosteen trees. As the lifeline of the Selinda Reserve, the Selinda Spillway is a crucial gathering point for the wildlife of this pristine 320,000-acre Reserve.  

This classic camp has three tents and one two-bedroom family tent, all on raised platforms with a private verandah.  Each camp is en-suite with flush toilet and a shower (with hot & cold running water).

The main area tents are on ground level decorated with Persian carpets and pillows, dark wooden furniture and copper accents. This explorers style camp set up creates an atmosphere of a by gone era.
 
Activities concentrate on getting back to nature with the emphasis on guided walking and there may be the option of canoeing when water levels permit (currently July – September, subject to change). In addition, day and night game drives are available exploring the Selinda Reserve. It is a wildlife hot spot, with huge herds of elephants and buffalo, lion, wild dog, sable and roan antelope all frequently spotted. 

Please note that the camp has 2 vehicles taking up to 4 guests in each which guarantees a window seat for all (unless a private group would like 6 in a vehicle), activities are planned together with your guide and all guests in camp, no private vehicle is available.

Airstrip Transfer Time: 45 minutes
