Siwandu, Selous Game Reserve, Tanzania

A Luxury Tented Camp in Tanzania

Camp Details

Broadly spaced along the lakeshore, Siwandu’s superbly appointed accommodation ensures maximum privacy and every opportunity to soak up the sights and sounds of Selous.  From either of the wooden decked verandas sit with a cup of tea at sunrise watching the bush come to life, or relax with a gin and tonic as the bush blushes under sunset.

The spacious octagonal tents of canvas and secure mosquito netting and topped in thatch, not only allows for constant air-flow, but also enables guests to gaze upon the animals as they saunter past on the same day. Observe them while reclining on the majestic king sized bed under the overhead fan or from the open-air stargazer, solar-heated showers which adjoin the en suite bathrooms.

Our elevated lounge and dining area, offer panaromic views across the lake as you enjoy a drink from our well stocked bar or sample our chef’s fine cuisine.   Also take a plunge in our shaded pool and recline on the sunlounger for the perfect “armchair safari”.

For that intimate, uninterrupted, bush experience, Siwandu is perfect for forgetting all the troubles of the modern world and immersing oneself in unspoilt nature with just the right amount of bush luxury.
