Abu Elephant Camp - Okavango - Botswana

The elephant back safaris are based at Abu's Camp on the western side of the Delta. Surrounded by open grasslands, island sanctuaries and the papyrus fringed channels, which make this part of Africa unique, Abu Camp is the perfect spot from which to explore the mysteries and magnificence of this ancient land.

Accommodation is in six luxurious custom designed tents, raised on teak decking and overlooking a lagoon. The tents have fully zipped entrances and roll down canvas on the windows. All are beautifully and individually furnished with mahogany four-poster beds or antique sleigh beds. Each tent has an en suite bathroom complete with copper or porcelain baths, shower and flush toilets.

The dining area is set on layered teak decking that winds its way around African ebony and sycamore fig trees. An expert safari chef conjures up magnificent meals, catering to all tastes and dietary requirements. Sundowners are served in the shade of these majestic and ancient trees whilst the lounge tent is the perfect place to relax in soft and comfortable chairs.

At Abu Camp, guests are transported in large comfortable custom-made saddles into the shimmering watercolour of the delta, on the most effective of all 4X4's, the African elephant. An elephant not only is able to cope in water and sand with equal ease, but can also get really close to other game, which is generally unaware of the human presence aloft.
