5.00The boat safari was part of a 3 day safari experience. Day one was a game drive, day two boat safari and bush walk and day three was a visit to a hot spring and game drive. The guides went out of their way to make the whole experience as memorable as possible and to find as many animals and birds as possible. Also the food and the staff at the safari camp were great and took excellent care of us.
GREAT SAFARI TOUR!

5.00The 2 day safari done at Selous game drive. It was so cool and we definitely recommend doing this tour! We got to see many breathtaking animals up close! Good contact with Anouk from Paradise and wilderness, really good service! Our guide during the game drive was Tarimo, he is also a real winner and tries so hard to spot all the animals! (This certainly worked out). We even hesitated to book another day so if in doubt I would definitely do this!
The perfect mix of adventure and relaxation in dreamlike surroundings!

5.00Super nice safaris with great guides who have always tried to fulfill all wishes. We saw a lot of different animals, even lions 😉The accommodation at the Africa Safari Selous was very pleasant and super friendly staff was always there for us. Unfortunately there was a lot of construction activity in our time, we were on safari during the day and from 18' it was closing time. We spent our remaining days in Zanzibar "in paradise".
Great food, view is incredible.!
