Silky Oaks Lodge

At Savute Under Canvas, luxury mobile safari tents are positioned at secluded sites in a remote and wild corner of Chobe National Park.  Spend nights under canvas close to nature in the landscape of the African night.

Secluded campsites in the wildlife haven of Savute provide a base for up close and personal adventure and discovery.

Carefully positioned as close as possible to the resident game, enjoy the simplicity of camping in one of the top wildlife areas in the world.

Camps move to a different site every five or six days. This is a true African experience, with campsites in remote areas where guests can expect to see few other people or vehicles.

Safari Tents
Spacious, comfortable mobile safari tents, each with twin or double bed, ensuite bathroom, separate wc and alfresco bucket shower, with hot water delivered on request.

GAME DRIVES
Game viewing in Savute is remote and wild. Savute is a famous battleground for lions and spotted hyena, and with grazing now plentiful, guests can now also enjoy frequent sightings of zebra, wildebeest, buffalo, giraffe, tsessebe and kudu. &Beyond’s professionally trained guides will ask you about your favourite wildlife and will do their best to ensure that your preferences are met, whether it is tracking a particular species or spending more time enjoying each sighting and getting to know the habits of the animals. They will also tell you about the vegetation of the region and will explain the behaviour of the animals that you come across. In some cases, the guides will be able to identify individual animals and let you know about their history and habits.
