Lake Manze Tented Camp

The camp is located in the Selous Game Reserve, the largest game reserve in Africa and is situated
on the banks of Lake Manze. On the one hour transit to the camp which can be reached from Siwandu airstrip, one is introduced to the beautiful plains of Selous and its assorted birds and wildlife.
The Lake Manze area is one of the richest for game in the entire Selous, both in the dry and wet season.

The camp maintains simplicity – there are no extra frills here. Though the result isn't luxurious, it is certainly exciting; you really do feel like you are out in the wilderness.
This feeling is enhanced by the camp's position on the floodplain of Lake Manze.
Animals really do come down to drink here – including elephants which use the old, well-worn elephant trail which runs around the lake and right in front of camp.

The tented rooms are raised up slightly on raised earth mounds which stand above the floodplain and have good views across the lake.
These mounds are covered in vegetation, and feel quite natural, and each one has been sited under its own cluster of shady doum palm trees.
There is a comfortable sitting areas overlook the lake - but don't be surprised to find some curious visitors!
Lake Manze dining: this takes place in the thatched dining area in the daytime,
and under the stars outside at night, with a campfire and Maasai to guard you.
Located on the banks of the lake, guests get a chance to observe families of hippos, sunbathing crocodiles, plentiful elephants, herons and much more.
Game Safaris and Boat Safaris are included in the excursions offered as part of the daily activities.
