Rufiji River Camp enjoys an enviable location high up on the banks of the Great Rufiji River, from where you will witness spectacular sunsets chorused by hippos grunting and a plethora of bird song.

Redesigned in 2009 to compliment the perfect location on a promontory in the river bank, the camp was built by local craftsmen, combining Makuti palm roofs with Selous-sourced paving stones and farmed hardwoods to create a beautiful and comfortable accommodation. There is a shaded swimming pool, a great way to cool off between safari activities, and a welcoming main lodge with a bar, social areas and restaurant.

Accommodation comprises 11 tents, positioned along the river bed, each pitched underneath thatched roofs with massive verandas giving views up and down the river. Each tent has an en suite bathroom, with solar-heated water for showering. Additionally, there are 3 suites, each comprising of 2 tents and and 2 en suite bathrooms - ideal for families or friends.

Activities include 2 x daily game drives (full-day game drives including a bush lunch can be requested in advance), walking safaris and the lodge operates a Game Package, where all food, activities, water, tea and coffees are included.
