Fodor's Expert Review Savute Elephant Camp
Chobe National Park, North West, Botswana
In the thriving Savuti region, splendid, spacious, air-conditioned, twin-bedded tents are elegantly furnished with cane and dark wood furniture, an impressive bed canopy with mosquito net, and a roomy bathroom with his-and-her sinks. For cold winter mornings and evenings, the air-conditioning unit even features a built-in heater function. Your private viewing deck with comfortable chairs and an inviting chaise longue overlooks the resurgent Savuti Channel, a magnet for thirsty elephants in the dry season. As the camp is in Chobe National Park, night drives and walking are against regulations, but you'll still see plenty of game and birds during the day. If you can manage to be here at full moon, the sight of masses of great, gray shapes gleaming in the moonlight is truly unforgettable.
PROS
- great location
- good predators all year round
