New Trend: Boutique Safari Camps
New trend alert: African safari camps are going luxe. Sure in the past you could find a treetop tented camp with an outdoor shower, but these days it is full on tented luxury in Botswana.
Botswana's Vumbura Plains is one such luxury camp. Bordering on the Moremi Game Reserve in Mombo, you go to Vumbura Plains to view big game in style. The main activity is hopping in a Land Rover and traversing up and down the 130,000 acre reserve trying to spot lions, leopards, elephants, cheetahs, and the like. However, once done searching for wild game you can kick back in your high end design camp and enjoy a sundowner. 14 bedded camps are linked by wooden boardwalks all with a lounge, an indoor shower, an outdoor shower, flushing toilets, and a plunge pool.
As a nod to the its surroundings, the Vubura does use indigenous timbers, stone and fabrics--in an avant-garde style of course.
