Our unquenchable desire to create memorable African experiences takes you on foot, by boat or vehicle, up close and personal with some of the biggest herds of elephants that traverse the largest conservation area in Africa.

Located on ancient elephant migratory routes perched high amongst majestic tree canopies

Honouring the elephants’ right of way, a timber walkway, towering above these gentle giants, meanders through the trees and joins the ten luxurious tented suites of exquisite comfort. Tastefully decorated with natural colours and evoking a gentle balance of serenity. The decadently spacious tented suites open completely and emanate a feeling of vastness and opulence.

Activities

Guided Game Drive

Duration: 3 hours

As dawn breaks or the afternoon shadows lengthen our game drives depart to discover the unknown behind every bend within the Bwabwata National Park. Observing every branch for a rare endemic bird, to be rewarded instead by an elusive leopard.

The silence broken by the deep low rumble vibrating through the bush, which could only belong to a large herd of elephants.

Out of nowhere they appear with a focused determination towards the life-giving water up ahead. Knuckles white, as I grip the seat of the game viewer, relishing the moment as a highlight of my journey through this unique Conservation area in Africa.

Boat Cruise

Duration: 2.5-3 hours

The early morning suns rays reflect off the waters edge. The soothing sound of the water is therapeutic as it is gently broken by the bow of the boat cutting through the waters surface.

Our guides steer the boats past varied landscapes of papyrus islands and reed floodplains and get within respectful distances of hippos, crocodiles, other mammals and the varied bird species this area is known for. An informative, yet soulful experience on waterways similar to that of the Okavango Delta.

Guided Bush Walk

Duration: 2-3 hours

Walking Safaris are an incredible way to experience the bush in a more personal and energetic way.

Our local guides take great delight in sharing their ancestral repertoire of medicinal uses of the flora along the way and their tales of the wild and their upbringing in this area.

It is an experience, which connects and grounds any participant to our Earth, as we are in a truly natural environment with lion, buffalo, elephants, leopard and other wildlife roaming these plains freely.

Bush Dining

Duration: 2.5-3 hours

Dining in the natural bush together with a sundowner on the cusp of the evening is a must when you visit Africa. We take you to the most romantic and memorable spots.

There is nothing quite like sitting in the silence of a remote area, with the splendid array of bird song, while breathing in the earth and the sweet scents of the surrounding trees.
A delectable and authentic experience that will make you fall in love with the Zambezi region.
