Chivalry is evident throughout the Selous Game Reserve, with the camp of Siwandu offering an idyllic environment for a wealth of Africa’s loved-up creatures. Situated within an open palm forest on the shores of Lake Nzerakera, it supports a myriad of bird life and the largest crocodile and hippo population in Africa.

Located in the vast Ruaha National Park, Siwandu’s sister camp Jongomero, is also one of Africa’s great birding paradises, with over 530 species of bird recorded to date, due to its remote location and the diversity of trees. The best time to see birds on safari is in January and February, when the terrain is lush and green and the trees are filled with the mating calls of birds in plume.

Couples can observe these blossoming relationships from their private verandah, or while on a walking safari or game drive. What’s more, as both Siwandu and Jongomero are unfenced, guests can sometimes encounter wildlife up close and personal – from a giant elephant to the cutest creature in the bush, the dik dik – whose big, Bambi eyes are enough to melt even the hardest of hearts – no wonder it’s so lucky in love!
