Anna Teversham's Trip to Botswana

Location: Okavango Delta

Accommodation: Abu Camp

After scheduled flights that took me as far as Maun in Botswana I climbed aboard a light aircraft which took me over the Okavango Delta to Abu Camp. After a very picturesque flight we were met at the landing strip and our guides took us by landrover to camp where we were greeted by a fantastic tribal song sung by the staff at Abu.

The managers at Abu camp, Bernadette and Graham, answered our many questions about the habituated elephants, how they had arrived at Abu and what each day entailed for them. I was very fortunate to enjoy an elephant back safari the following morning. The elephant gently lowered themselves to enable us to climb aboard before we set off into the dusty bush. Abu camp is an experience in itself along with fantastic game viewing and expert hosting I would not hesitate to recommend the camp to both the experience safari goer and first timer alike.

Location: Okavango Delta

Accommodation: Tubu Tree Camp

A couple of days later once again I was high above the delta but this time in a helicopter that took me to Tubu Tree Camp. The game around Tubu was spectacular. I was very pleased to see a large pack of wild dogs which a couple of times were caught tormenting baboons! One mesmerizing game experience was when we followed two lionesses supporting each other in the hunt of a small herd of zebra. Although we kept our distance there were occasions when we were very close indeed as the lionesses doubled back and walked stealthily past our jeep. Heart beats racing, the guides in silence, you could hear the big cats low rumbling chests. What an experience!

The guides at Tubu tree were very friendly often recounting stories to us as we enjoyed our days out on safari. The rooms at Tubu were large and the pool and bar area were such a treat after a long game drive.

Location: Okavango Delta

Accommodation: Vumbura Plains

After another helicopter ride above the watery delta below I arrived at Vumbura Plains. Once again as I climbed out of the helicopter my guide was there to great me and carried my bags to the landrover for the short ride into camp. Vumbura Plains was very different to what I had imagined. Sand blasted pine board walkways interlinked each large room, which on entrance opened up into a huge space that included my own private plunge pool and dining area.

The staff at Vumbura were fantastic and put on a traditional evening for the guests, that included traditional dancing and singing which was enjoy immensely by all. The game was again excellent, on my last morning game drive my guide Peter tracked down a male cheetah which had just eaten a very large breakfast. It was an excellent memory to take away with me from a superb camp.

Location: Linyanti Region

Accommodation: Kings Pool

Even before leaving the office I knew to expect that Kings Pool would be quite luxurious and I definitely was not disappointed. The camp rooms were very large and comfortably furnished and the outside shower, plunge pool, sala and a large veranda gave the most magnificent view of Namibia and the river below.

The game around Kings Pool was prolific. Game drives continued to present me with creatures I had not yet seen and Copper, my guide, was great at spotting animals through the bush and managed to find us a lioness with two six month old cubs. Although we sat and watched the mother for some time lick clean her cubs I could have sat there all day, this is a memory I will never forget.

Botswana is a country of true untouched beauty and to spend a week in the heart of the Delta was amazing. The game at all the camps was superb and I have come away with many wonderful memories. If you would like to talk to me personally about any of these camps or others that you would like to incorporate into an itinerary, please do not hesitate to contact me.
