Property details

The property

The elevated central area, with its lounge, bar, dining and communal meeting areas, has comfortable furniture that just beckons you to settle down with a book from the well-stocked bookshelves, or simply to take in the wide view of the surrounding marshes and Linyanti River. The atmosphere is old-style colonial, with an eclectic collection of artefacts from across Africa decorating the room. After dinner, cross the deck and head downstairs to enjoy chats and drinks around the crackling camp fire.

The rooms

There are six very large and comfortable Meru-style tents, each sensitively sited so as not to obstruct the views from the others. Reed mats cover the floors, hardwood furniture has been polished to a gleam, large sleigh-style beds make sure you'll sleep well, and the en-suite bathroom offers a shower and hot running water. Outside, you can watch the passing parade from your private seating area.

Activities

At Linyanti Bush Camp, day and night game drives take priority, showcasing an impressive diversity of wildlife, including the many predators of the region. Mokoro and boating trips to investigate the uinque aquatic wildlife as well as smaller mammal species. Keen anglers can fish from the boat for tilapia and other freshwater species. Walking safaris with armed and wild-smart rangers offer truly up-close-and-personal encounters. These excursions sharpen the senses and offer the most in-depth look at the Linyanti ecosystem. This camp is well known for it high-quality guiding, and is an Important Bird Area, especially waterfowl and birds of prey.

Why we love it

Tracking big cat footprints in the sandy earth by morning and following rare African wild dogs in the afternoon, before freshening up in the copper shower with a view of the Linyanti marsh.

Insiders Tip

The birdlife is excellent and there are plenty of local and migratory species to be spotted. A favourite sighting is always the spotted African eagle owl. Remember those binos!

Something to think about

The bush camp is located just next to the larger main camp so you might spot a few fellow safari-goers around and about the area.
