We had an amazing time at Selous national park, and the main reason for that was because Deo was out guide. He has an increadible amount of knowledge on all the animals and answered all out questions. He also took his time to show us the animals at the national park without disrupting them. Overall we couldn't have had a better experience without Deo. If you need a guide, I definitely recommend Deo!

We did a one-day Selous Game tour with Deo which was absolutely amazing. From the first moment when we met him we were already very comfortable. Deo combines his huge knowledge about the wildlife with a lot of patience, kindness and sense of humour. He did everything so that we see as lot animals as possible - but he always took care that we do not disturb or affect the life of the animals badly. Of course, he also took care about our welfare. We had a coffee and a lunch break and as much toilet breaks as necessary as soft drinks were also offered :-) Deo is doing his job with a lot of passion and always tries to do everything for creating an extraordinary experience. It was the best idea to go with Deo to Selous Game!
