What To Prepare?
Our fishing camp is open during August - December when the day temperature varies from 20 to 35 degrees. Each group is invited to spend 5-7 days in the pristine environment surrounded by wild animals and savannah vegetation.
5 1/2 days will be dedicated to fishing. Many exotic fishing localities will be visited. Some fishing will be conducted from the river banks while rapids will also provide exciting angling.
Our experienced & knowledgable guides will take you on a river safari and will navigate on aluminium boats in the larger areas and on inflatables in the rapids.

Catch & Release
We do ethical fishing which means tigerfish can be photographed and will then be released to ensure a healthy population of large species. Large vundu and rhino fish are also released and vundu of more than 80 pounds has been caught. The fishing localities are rotated regularly to ensure the survival and prevent over fishing.

Getting there
Transport to the camp site constitutes either a chartered plane or by road (500km). Charter flights are the preferred means of transport due to the condition of the roads. Arrival at Dar es Salaam before 15h00 can enable a transfer to the camp on the same day. The charters are performed by a reputable company and will take 1.5 hours with an additional 2 hour drive in the Selous Game Reserve. By road it will take between 8 and 10 hours.
The drive from the Airport in Selous Game Reserve to the Camp will take 1.5h through the beautiful African safari landscapes where you will see elephant, buffalo and the occasional lion.
A photographic or scenic safari can be booked either before, or in between your fishing days.

camp & facilities
Travel Information
A new camp was established in 2015 on the banks of the Kilombero River in a remote area in the Selous Game Reserve. The views from camp cannot be described and words like magic, majestic, marvellous and superb can never do justice to the beauty of the setting. Vegetation constitutes large trees in the riverine forest and occasional baobab trees enhance the landscape.
Living quarters consist of 4 large safari tents with en-suite ablution facilities sporting both hot and cold water. Meals are provided in a thatch-roofed dining area facing the Kilombero River. Well trained Staff are dedicated to make your visit unforgettable. Washing is done on a daily basis.
An able Chef is responsible for a range of excellent cuisine including dinner and breakfast with a packed lunch for consumption either in camp or in some scenic area along the river.
Cold beers abound in camp and form a barrier against dehydration, especially in the late afternoons.
