Selous Kulinda Camp

Exceptional hospitality from staff ensures a welcoming experience. The well-equipped facility includes a beautiful restaurant, bar, and stunning pool for relaxation and enjoying the views.

My wife and I have just got back from our honeymoon which began with a 4 night stay here and we are lost for words in trying to describe how incredible the experience was! From the moment we arrived we felt so welcome, our guide Francis picked us up at the airport and took us on our first afternoon drive where we had a fantastic lunch provided by the camp sat by the Rufiji river. The camp itself is everything you need and more, the wonderful hosts Jerry and Jamie welcomed us on arrival at the camp and were there for us throughout the stay for everything we needed. Our tent was extremely well looked after with everything that you could need considering where you are in the world! The pool was a great addition to have available after a long hot days safari, looking out over the river and surrounded by the friendly baboons! The food is a packed lunch provided by the camp each day, and a set menu at night and every meal was fantastic, with a large variety of different dishes each evening! Chande, our wonderful waiter, was on hand for everything and anything, always bringing us drinks when we needed them and always smiling! I really enjoyed learning Swahili from Chande with a few new words each day. On our final night Chande put on a special evening meal for us to celebrate our honeymoon by the bush fire which was absolutely incredible and a memory we'll never forget. The whole team sang Jambo Bwana and danced along, the experience made our stay so special! Finally to our guide Francis, thank you so much! Francis was a fountain of knowledge and a calming presence when we were charged by an elephant which was quite scary at first! Every single day Francis created more incredible memories by managing to find exactly what we wanted to see. The passion and drive he has for what he does was really inspiring. To all at Selous Kulinda Camp, 'asante sana' for making our honeymoon so unforgettable!

This was our first safari as a family and Selous Kulinda Camp could not have been more perfect. The warmest of welcomes every day from Jerry, Jamie and the staff, delicious food, evening entertainment, spotless, roomy and comfortable accommodation. We arrived in camp a day late due to flight delays but they arranged an extra night for us which we truly appreciated. All the staff were excellent including John our waiter and Baggio who escorted us to and from our luxury tents each evening. A super special mention goes to Francis, our safari guide, who made sure we saw all the animals and birds the park has to offer and educated us on each of them. His ability to spot the wildlife whilst driving has to be seen to be believed! The park itself is beautiful with varied terrain, lots of lakes and trees as well as open areas. It wasn't over-run with safari vehicles either like I've heard some places can be. I think there was only 1 occasion where there were more than 2 vehicles in the same sighting and most of the time we were the only ones. Highly recommend.
