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 4x4 game drives further afield.
