Selinda Camp

Selinda Camp belongs to Great Plains Conservation and stands inside the private Selinda Reserve in northern Botswana, on the bank where the Selinda Spillway runs into the Linyanti River, an area the company calls one of the most untouched wildernesses left. It is very small, with only three suites, each with an indoor bathroom, a large private veranda and its own swimming pool. The Selinda Suite, with two bedrooms, is listed separately in Great Plains' Réserve Collection. Meals are part of the stay, among them an interactive dinner of six small plates cooked with the chef, and the rate also covers scheduled activities, laundry and drinks, champagne and premium spirits included. Days are spent on open-vehicle drives, guided walks and boat trips, with tag-and-release fishing in season, and one of the boat outings goes to watch bull elephants feeding on water lilies; the water activities depend on the flood. There is a spa area, and massages can be given on the veranda. Scheduled light-aircraft transfers between camps and from Maun or Kasane are included for stays of at least two nights. Selinda Camp is a member of Relais & Châteaux.
