Selous Mbega Camp

Selous Game Reserve


This laid-back budget camp is located about 1km outside the eastern boundary of the Selous near Mtemere gate and just west of Mloka village. It has raised, no-frills tents set in the foliage overlooking the river, and reasonably priced boat and vehicle safaris. Pick-ups and drop-offs to and from Mloka are free.

The 'backpackers' special' rate is for travellers arriving in Mloka or Kisaki by bus.
