We fly from Zanzibar to the Selous game reserve on the mainland of Tanzania where we will spend three days in a small riverside lodge.
The Selous, Africa’s largest game reserve, at 55,000 sqkm, is almost 50 times the size of Hong Kong. Its varied landscape includes semi-arid savannah, hills, swamps, rivers and lakes, lush forests. Remote and hard to get to, the Selous does not get many visitors and the few days we spend there will give us the greatest feeling of isolation since the beginning of our trip.
