If you love walking in the wilderness with big game, then consider taking a mobile walking safari. These four-night, five-day trips are led by top walking guides to explore the area around Steigler's Gorge, Lake Makubi and Lake Tagalala. Each day is different from the last.
Your mornings and evenings are spent walking, tracking game or sometimes taking a boat trip, whilst you can relax in the shade back at the fly-camp during the middle of the day. Evenings end with three-course meals under the stars, before drinks around the campfire. Taking a maximum of six, the camps are the same as those used for the fly-camps.
These safaris start on any day and last for a minimum of 4 nights; they work best during the dry months, from around June to October.
Birdwatching: The walking guides are excellent and the Selous is a great area for bird-watching - and covering the ground on foot is a superb way to really experience the Selous.

Sand Rivers walking mobile review
very good location - what I did not quite appreciate before is how much easier it is to approach animals by boat or car and how much quicker they take to flight if approached by humans on foot.
