This vibrant ecosystem is known for its high density of predators and large elephant populations. Become one with the wild at Linyanti Expeditions.
Activities include exciting game drives and immersive walking safaris, where, accompanied by your knowledgeable guide, you’ll venture into the bush, observing the smaller details of nature that are often overlooked from a vehicle. Experience traditional mokoro safaris as you glide through the serene waterways of the Linyanti Wetlands, expertly guided by local polers. These mokoro safaris offer a peaceful way to observe the region's vibrant bird and aquatic life.
At Linyanti Expeditions, the boundary between indoor and outdoor living is beautifully blurred, inviting you to immerse yourself in the magnificence of the African bush. Enjoy a fully stocked bar and gather around the spacious dining table for shared meals featuring local ingredients. After a day of adventure, find peace in serene nooks designed for relaxation and reflection, allowing you to recharge amidst the rich beauty of the landscape.
The luxury tents are firmly rooted on the ground, giving that extra level of connection to nature. Each room has en-suite bathrooms with chemical eco-friendly toilets and al fresco bucket showers. The wow factor in the rooms is the ‘star suite’. Each tent has a gazebo extension, where beds can be moved at night to give the experience of sleeping beneath a blanket of glimmering stars, immersing yourself in the wonders of the wilderness while still staying in the security of a mesh-enclosed area.

Explore Botswana in an open 4x4 vehicle, driven by your safari guide. Encounter the region's wildlife during early morning and late afternoon drives – the times of day when animals are most active. Learn about the wildlife, their tracks, and the surrounding plants from your expert guide as you experience close-up encounters. On your game drives, enjoy morning coffee, snacks, and evening sundowners set against the beautiful backdrop of a savanna sunset.
Walking safaris in Chobe National Park present a rare opportunity to explore the African wild on foot. By stepping away from the safari vehicle, you can fully immerse in the environment, awakening your senses to the sights and sounds of nature. Our expert walking guides will accompany you through the African bush, offering fascinating insights into wildlife, animal tracks, insects, native plants, and the region’s geology.

The African Bush Camps Foundation is committed to empowering rural communities. We partner with communities on the outskirts of wildlife areas to become economically sustainable whilst ensuring that natural resources are protected and cared for. We also support local schools and run education programmes for children in communities. We invite guests who stay with us at our camps in Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe. This helps travellers gain a deeper understanding of the country they are visiting and its people. As extraordinary as a safari is, these tours allows you to engage with Africa and its rich cultural heritage.
