Located in the Savute corner of the game-rich Chobe National Park is the private semi-mobile safari camp, Savute Under Canvas. This African experience provides an up-close and personal adventure, carefully positioned as close to the resident game as possible.

The camp has five comfortable safari tents with a double bed and en-suite facilities that include a separate WC and bucket shower (hot water delivered on request). The guest areas comprise of comfortable tents for dining, pre-dinner drinks or just whiling away the time between game drives.

This arid region of the Chobe is known for the enigmatic Savute Channel, large numbers of lions, open plains, the annual Zebra migration (usually around March) and baobab trees. Activities from camp include daily game drives.
