Absolutely amazing safari

Taking the kids on a day-trip safari to Selous seemed like a crazy idea, but it turned out to be the absolute highlight of our family trip! With a 10 and 14-year-old, we were worried they'd get bored, but they were captivated from start to finish. The flight in was a quick and easy way to get there, and our kids thought it was so cool to land right in the bush. We saw huge herds of elephants, giraffes, a whole pride of lions, and so many hippos. The open-sided vehicle made it so immersive. The bush lunch was another huge hit. Eating in the middle of the wilderness felt like something out of a movie. It's a big investment for a day, but for a family that wants a genuine safari experience without the time commitment of a multi-day tour, this is perfect. They haven't stopped talking about it.
