In an ever changing North-Botswana landscape
The Savute Channel had been dry for decades, until 2008 when it became once more a deep, clear waterway for hippo and waterbirds
Camp Savuti is situated on the Savuti Channel in northern Botswana. The camp is built about 17 kilometres 'downstream' from the source of the Savuti, in an ever-changing landscape. The Savuti Channel has been dry for many decades but very recently in 2008, the Savute Channel once more became a deep, clear waterway harbouring hippo and aquatic life with myriad varieties of waterbirds. The Savute area harbours one of the densest dry-season concentrations of elephant in Africa
Savuti Camp is a comfortable camp providing accommodation in five twin bedded tents of which 3 can be converted into king size beds on request. All tents are fan-cooled and on raised decks with views onto the Savuti Channel. Each is en-suite, with outside showers. Soaps, shampoos and insect repellents are supplied in each room. The camp has a thatched dining area, bar and plunge pool, all on raised wooden decks. There is also a curio shop and a boma area. There is a waterhole close to camp, attracting large numbers of game that guests can view from the camp.
Activities include morning and afternoon game drives in open 4-wheel drive Land Rovers, hides (including a woodpile hide located at the waterhole in front of the camp). Catch sight of nocturnal creatures on a night drive along the Savute Channel. Enjoy walking safaris with an armed guide or seasonal catch-and-release fishing. Wildlife in the area is populous; this is one of the best areas in the country to see predators. This also means that there are good concentrations of plains animals in the area.
