Savute
Elephant Camp is located on the Savute Channel in Chobe
National Park, which is in the rugged, semi-arid wilderness
region of far northern Botswana. And it is a tented camp,
recently under thatch, in true African style.
Savute personifies the eternal contrast of Africa. Savute
is an objective lesson in aridity. Rain in this dry place
is rare and water is precious.
Situated on the Savute Channel, which is an eccentric waterway
that fluctuates between being bone-dry or flooding, the
whole ethos of Savute Elephant Camp is commiserate with
its inhabitants and environment, although the camp has not
seen water flowing in the channel since 1983.
You
find yourself in harmony with a unique timeless place, removed
from city life. In Savute, you realize that precious little
has changed on these dry plains since time began. And the
realization dawns that you are fortunate and privileged
to be in one of the last corners of the planet governed
by nature.
The camp offers 12 twin-bedded luxury tents. Each has it's
own private wooden viewing deck en suite facilities and
large dressing area, air conditioning and heating.
