We have just returned from 4 night stay at Selous Kinga Lodge. Our overall experience was excellent and we found the hotel staff very helpful, pleasant and friendly. Generally the facilities are very good, considering where you are! Our safari guide was there to meet us from our flight and accompanied us throughout all the excursions. His English was very good and he was always very helpful and knowledgeable with regards to any questions. The walking safari was a brilliant experience with so many interesting things to learn about plants, trees and insects too. With regards to the food we had some very nice meals and particularly enjoyed the breakfasts which included delicious fresh fruit. As we booked the trip ourselves we found their office very helpful with organising the internal flights and booking the excursions and they were very efficient indeed. If we are lucky enough ever to book another safari we would love to return and would thoroughly recommend to anyone to stay here.

Ce lodge ne se trouve pas DANS l'enceinte du parc. donc chaque jour on paie en plus l'entrée 50$ pp et par jour. Le tarif, étant haute saison, trop élevé pour els attente. Le Menu était bien préparé, mais en 4 jours on a quand même mangé 3 fois la même chose. Le safari par bateau est du pipo. on a vu 1 crocodile, 2 lézards - quelques oiseau et une poignée de canards!!!!!! Peu d'eau chaude, pas de clim et ventilo insuffisant. Nous sommes des touristes vaches à lait. Nous partons 2 fois par ans dans le monde entier . Ici et pour toute la Tanzanie et Zanzibar, les tarifs ne donnent pas le confort qu'on estime acheter. Le tourisme va pas bien dans ce pays, très pauvre, mais les "exploitants" touristiques aggravent la situation. Tout est plus cher pour les non-résidents, du taxi - l'avion - chambre - .... et pourtant on utilise les mêmes appareil ( je en parle pas des entrées des parcs). Les résidents ( employés d'hotel - femme de chambre - ... ) gagnent entre 50 et 80 $ par mois

For US$500 a night double it is a complete rip off!! When we were there they ran out of food and served us tough goat and chicken from the village next door followed by stale cake with sand in it. No fresh vegetables in the 2 days we were there except for the few little bits of onion, tomatoes and cucumbers! The village and mosque are almost on the properties premises so there was not much peace and quiet for a bush experience. They had also run out of drinks and there was no ice. Staff quite friendly though the manager kept on lying to us whenever we questioned him about any of the lodge services. All in all it was a very disappointing stay and would not recommend this place to anyone!
