Start your day early with a short flight from Zanzibar to Selous. The flight takes about an hour and 15 minutes and offers beautiful views of Tanzania’s coastline and wilderness below. Getting in early means you’ll have plenty of time to explore.
After landing, your guide will meet you and you’ll hop into a 4x4 for your morning game drive. This is prime time to spot wildlife like elephants, lions, giraffes, and many other animals while the light is perfect for photos.
Mid-morning, it’s time to switch gears with a boat safari. Quietly cruising along the Rufiji River, you will see hippos, crocodiles, and lots of birdlife, offering a fresh perspective on the park’s wildlife. After all that exploring, you will enjoy lunch either as a picnic in the bush or at a nearby lodge, giving you time to relax and refresh before the afternoon adventure.
Head back out for another game drive. This is a great chance to spot predators like lions, leopards, or wild dogs, which are often more active in the cooler afternoon hours, the landscapes and wildlife you see here might be different from the morning, making for a full day of discovery.
Later in the afternoon, you will head back to the airstrip and catch your flight back to Zanzibar. Relax on the flight home, soaking in the memories and views of Tanzania’s wild beauty from above. You’ll arrive back by early evening, ready to unwind after an unforgettable day.
