Went here in October 2011 for our first safari experience. Amazing and fabulous three days. The staff and guides were brilliant and helpful and the variety of trips made this a truly memorable experience. Boat trips and walking safari were brilliant and the wildlife and birds were incredible. Just so glad that our first experience of a safari was in... More

It's fabulous! The Selous Game Reserve is beautiful, the river trip is a nice change from being in a vehicle and a wonderful experience. I finally saw plenty of crocodiles up close and personal! The camp itself is managed by an Italian woman Sarah who is great! The accommodations are just right and the food is delicious. I enjoy staying... More

We had an incredible experience at Lake Manze. It was the first stop on our honeymoon safari tour in Tanzania, and I can't say enough about the location, the camp and the quality of the guides. I don't know what expectations other travelers have about "luxury camps," but the permanent tents were clean, comfortable, stylish and private. I wouldn't have... More

Lake Manze may be one of the cheaper camps in the Selous but it is excellent value for money. The photographs of the camp on its website do not do it justice. The tents, although not luxurious, are more spacious and better appointed than they appear, with a very comfortable bed, an outside loo and shower with running water (not... More

Spent 4 nights here at the beginning of October and cannot praise the camp or staff enough Wildlife viewing is exceptional.We saw everything we wanted including wild dogs,hyenas and of course lions (we were lucky enough to see a pair mating and also two females on a giraffe kill) The birdlife is exceptional and we really recommend the boat safaris...

We spent 3 nights here and loved it! We were picked up for the landing strip and went straight on a land safari and saw wild dogs, lions, countless beautiful birds zebras and giraffes. The camp is very well thought out with the tents very well spread out. The food was fantastic with something different every night. There were two... More

To put this review into perspective I should point out that this was my first experience of Africa and my first safari so I have nothing at all to make a comparison with. I travelled with just my wife, first to Selous Game Reserve and then on to Zanzibar. We went in August, after the rains but before the really... More

My wife and I had never been to a safari place before - this was excellent, and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to do a safari. We were only here two nights/three days but it felt longer, in a good way! I think three nights would be ideal but if like us you can only afford two you... More

The density of game is not as great in Selous as in other parks but there are way fewer humans and the terrain is totally different. Lake Manze is one of the least expensive places in Selous to stay but it doesn't feel like it at all. The service is great, totally personalized and the food is great. We lay... More
