Camp Savuti Travel Guide

Camp Savuti is nestled in a remote corner of Chobe National Park, bordering the Linyanti River to the west and the Chobe River to the east. This intimate camp epitomizes the Botswana safari experience with its understated elegance and focus on exceptional game viewing. The camp is surrounded by the diverse landscapes of the Savuti Marsh area, known for its dramatic cycles of flooding and drying.The Savuti Channel, a fascinating and mysterious waterway, has a history of flowing and drying up independently of rainfall. After being dry for nearly 30 years, the channel began flowing again in 2008, bringing new life to the area. This has transformed the Savuti Marsh into a haven for wildlife, attracting large concentrations of animals, including elephants, buffalo, and a variety of predators.Camp Savuti offers guests the thrill of getting close to top predators, including lions known to hunt elephants, in their natural habitat. Activities include morning and afternoon game drives in the Savuti region, led by experienced guides. The camp itself features five Meru-style tents built on elevated wooden decks overlooking the expansive Savuti Marsh and channel area. The tents are decorated with African-inspired woodwork, cattle skin rugs, and arts and crafts, providing an authentic and comfortable safari experience.
