SMALL AND LUXURIOUS SAFARI CAMP
On the banks of the fabled Selinda Spillway, a seasonal waterway connecting the Okavango Delta to the Linyanti Swamp, Selinda Camp has access to a 130,000-hectare private game reserve.
Small and luxurious, Selinda Camp nestles amongst the game-rich floodplains, waterways and open savannah of the vast Selinda Reserve. This is one of Africa’s most spectacular wilderness areas. A remote, untamed expanse roamed by thousands of elephants, scores of African wild dogs and lions of National Geographic fame.
It has just three very comfortable guest tents under thatch, each with a large private veranda, four-poster bed and swimming pool. As well as the three main tents, there’s also the Selinda Suite, a two-bedroom tented villa which operates separately for a more exclusive experience – complete with your own private safari vehicle, guide and chef.
The main living area encompasses an artwork-filled lounge and a raised thatched dining area overlooking the floodplains. Home-cooked meals are lovingly prepared and served out on the star deck or in the main lodge. Other facilities include a shaded plunge pool, whilst activities include bush walks in the immediate vicinity of camp and day and night 4×4 game drives further afield.

The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
