Set on a small peninsula overlooking the water, Roho ya Selous sits in the very heart of the Selous Game Reserve. Explore this vast wilderness, home to one of Africa’s largest populations of wild dog, with our expert safari guides.
The real magic of the Selous lies in the variety each day on safari brings. Whether you’re exploring on a game drive in search of leopard lurking in the shady boughs of a fig tree, or out on foot tracking wildlife that’s ventured close to camp during the night, this reserve is full of surprises. With just eight canvas tented rooms, each with air-cooling systems over your bed to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep in the hotter months, Roho ya Selous strikes the perfect balance between comfort and adventure.
A newly constructed, high-quality tented camp under the esteemed Asilia brand, Roho ya Selous features eight elegant suites with a natural air-conditioning system, a private bathroom, and a shaded veranda. The guides possess extensive knowledge of the area and lead 4X4 game drives, guided walks, river safaris, and catch-and-release fishing trips, all designed to provide guests with a comprehensive and diverse Nyerere safari experience.
Closed during the Nyerere wet season (mid-March to the end of May), Roho ya Selous serves as an excellent introduction to the expansive reserve for safari travelers seeking a new destination or for seasoned Nyerere visitors eager to explore a different area. A three-and-a-half-hour flight from the Serengeti, the camp welcomes families with children over five, although it is better suited for older children.
