Abu Camp

Safari and Wildlife Lodge
Okavango Delta, Botswana

Abu Camp is an exclusive elephant safari experience located in the private 180,000-hectare concession. The camp consists of six imaginatively designed spacious en-suite tents, each on raised platforms blending in with the surroundings.

Each tent has stylish furnishings, double vanity bathrooms with inside and outside showers, a separate comfortable seating area and a private, tree-shaded deck with panoramic lagoon views. There are a lounge and dining area, a well-stocked library and study, a gym, campfire and a secluded plunge pool.

Activities at Abu are centred on extraordinary elephant encounters with the resident herd, made-up off free-roaming rescued animals. There are morning and afternoon game drives, motorboats or mokoros (seasonal), and scenic flights.

Why we like Abu Camp

The sleep-out on a star bed overlooking the elephant boma is a firm favourite with guests.

Conservation

One the key aims of Abu Camp has always been elephant conservation. Specifically, the camp aims to reintroduce captive elephants to the wild – a process that can be slow and challenging. However, thanks to the establishment of the Abu Herd, nine elephants have been successfully reintroduced to the wild (as of 2019). These elephants then provide vital information to conservationists and researchers about their behaviour in the wild.
