Secluded campsites in Savute, a remote and wild corner of Chobe National Park provide a base for nights under canvas, filled with adventure and discovery as the rustic charm of camping combines with the comfort of exceptional service.
Savute, a remote and wild corner of Chobe National Park, stretches from the park’s northern boundaries to the Linyanti River. The area’s main feature is the mysterious Savute Channel, which flows and dries up seemingly unrelated to the rainfall. Dry and arid for almost 30 years, animals in the area were sustained by artificial waterholes. With the Savute Channel flowing again in recent years, the region has undergone a startling transformation, reverting to its natural lush and marshy state. Large numbers of wildlife have been attracted to this rejuvenated wilderness haven.
The semi-mobile tented camps of &Beyond Savute Under Canvas are carefully positioned at exclusive wilderness campsites in the expansive Savute corner of Chobe National Park, offering exceptional game viewing opportunities. Booked on a nightly basis, each of the five comfortable tents has a double bed, as well as an en-suite bathroom, separate w.c., and steaming hot bucket shower, with water delivered on request. The guest areas comprise comfortable tents for dining, meeting for a pre-dinner drink, or just whiling away the time between game drives. Welcoming camp staff serve delicious meals cooked over the glowing coals.
Sizable numbers of elephant bulls are invariably present. During the dry years, when prey was hard to find, many of Savute’s lions became notorious for hunting elephants. With the recent transformation of the region, prey has become more abundant, and the large lion prides have split up into smaller family groups, allowing a greater variety of predators to flourish in the area. Savute is also a famous battleground for lions and spotted hyenas. With grazing now plentiful, the area is also popular with zebra, wildebeest, buffalo, giraffe, tsessebe, and kudu.

This company is like a hidden gem- so worth it!
This is not the first time I have dealt with this company. And I return with good reason. They are efficient and professional. They listen to what you want, and search until they can help you achieve whatever your goal was. I have dealt with Dolan many times. This time Anja helped me. I have only good things to say.

Anja and safari.com made our Christmas…
Anja and safari.com made our Christmas and New Year holiday vacation perfection. We had direction and choices to choose from at every point of the planning. Upon arrival it was seem less. Drivers and guides that found you on time, very knowledgeable and very kind. The safari part of our trip was stellar, the cottage was so cozy and the drives were sightings of every big 5 and beyond. Just the mention of Anja, who had confirmed, you were expected and treated extremely well. Anja reminded us of events just in case which was so nice to know you had someone watching over you. Everything was top notch and went exactly as it was planned. Thank you for a beautiful vacation to Anja and her team.

Anja and safari.com are the best!!!!!
Anja and safari.com are the best, period! Excellent planning, wonderful suggestions and constant contact during our vacation, even over the holidays. Anja reminded us our activity times, reconfirmed reservations and even called to adjust departure times for excursions when our family mead running behind. Anja’s suggestions were right on and always excellent. Only wish we would have let her book our ABNB in capetown. Best customer service in a time where that seems to be dying. Can’t say enough positive about her. Thank you for making our 2.5 week family trip one we will never forget 🙏🏻 I would not suggest booking your trip to SA without Anja and safari.com
