Deteema's eight safari tents are simple in style, with green canvas walls and enough room to comfortably accommodate twin or double beds, and an en-suite bathroom with a flush toilet and hot-and-cold running showers. Like the main area, the tents are raised on large wooden decks with views of the Deteema Springs.
Deteema Springs is owned by Machaba Safaris which deeply values the communities in Botswana and Zimbabwe, and feeds back into them through education, empowerment, and conservation initiatives. They support local schools and programs while working with communities to protect fragile ecosystems and promote human-wildlife coexistence. Addressing infrastructure needs, they provide essentials like water and sustainable gardens. Visitors can contribute through donations, volunteering, or simply by choosing Machaba Safaris for their safari experience.
