Selinda Explorers Camp
Selinda Explorers Camp is placed under the shade of the riverine forest in a remote location on the famous Selinda Spillway, one and a half hour's west of Selinda main camp.
The 4 spacious custom-designed luxury tents have en suite ‘bustani’ bathrooms with hot water bucket showers and flush porcelain toilets. As a romantic touch, brass hipbaths can be portered to a nearby sand bank on the banks of the Spillway. Decorated with copper vanities, beautifully detailed campaign-style furniture, soft furnishings from Zanzibar and the East, Persian rugs, and personal hammocks adorning each veranda, the décor pays homage to classic safari camps but with a modern twist and hospitality. The canvas main area is simple, but shaded and cool, providing a place to rendezvous, contemplate, and have a jolly good laugh. If the cool shade of the canvas and trees simply isn't enough to quell the mid-day heat, then grab the guide and go for a swim in the refreshing waters of the Spillway. Dinner is served under the stars or in the dining area but is always wholesome, tasty and cooked over an open fire. This fire then becomes a spot to enjoy your nightcap. |

The camp is ecologically sensitive with 100% solar power, grey water treatment, and bore-hole water for drinking. Laundry service is not provided at this camp.
The tents have individual solar panels to power lights and there will be a small generator in camp for emergency charging of camera batteries, although it is recommended to bring a spare set of batteries.
The intention of Selinda Explorers Camp is to offer you a wildlife experience focused on guided walking and canoeing, but day and night game drives are available to explore the eastern reaches of the private Selinda Reserve where there is an extensive network of tracks.
The area is a wildlife hot spot, with huge herds of elephants and buffalo, lion, wild dog, sable and roan antelope all frequently spotted. On safari it is possible to see a tremendous diversity of species, with particular emphasis on the smaller things only seen outside of a vehicle.
