The camp’s welcoming staff will assist you in settling into your tent before convening at the communal area for lunch or pre-dinner drinks.
Prepare for an exhilarating game drive guided by expert trackers who tailor the experience to your interests, whether focusing on specific species or lingering longer at sightings amidst the game-rich landscapes of Savute.

With no Wi-Fi or electricity, embrace the chance to disconnect from everyday life and fully engage in each thrilling moment of adventure.

Lunch is served in open-sided tents, perfect for relaxing, enjoying pre-dinner drinks, or simply unwinding with a good book between game drives. Evenings bring stargazing opportunities as stories are shared about the day’s exploits.
