Further Information

Set in half a million acres of private concession, this tranquil, shady corner is in a pristine wilderness threaded by crystal waters. Surrounded by open grasslands, island sanctuaries and the papyrus-fringed channels, which make this part of Africa unique, Abu Camp is the perfect spot from which to explore this fascinating area. The camp also runs fabulous elephant-back safaris.

Abu Camp's atmosphere is that of the ultimate house party created each week for ten guests. A ratio of four staff to each guest ensures the best of attention and service. Accommodation is in luxurious, customised tents, raised on teak decking and overlooking a lagoon. The tents, described as Bedouin influence meets the African bush, have fully zipped entrances and roll down canvas on the windows. All the tents are beautifully and individually furnished with mahogany four-poster beds or antique sleigh beds. Each tent has an ensuite bathroom complete with copper or porcelain baths, shower and flush loo.

The dining area is set on layered teak decking that winds its way around African ebony and sycamore fig trees. An expert safari chef conjures up magnificent meals, catering to all tastes and dietary requirements. Sundowners are served in the shade of the trees with abundant cocktails on ice. The sitting room tent is the perfect place to relax in soft and comfortable chairs. A well-stocked library is available too, with a number of reference books and beautiful coffee table books on Africa displayed.

 

Why?

  • The interaction with elephants is quite outstanding and ambience and service is excellent
Why Not?
  • If you are not completely happy in the company of very large animals, I would not take this safari
