EXPERIENCES

At Sanctuary Baines' Camp your four-poster 'sky bed' can be rolled onto your private wooden deck for a night under the starry skies of the Okavango Delta. If you're not quite ready to get under the covers, indulge in a private star bath set up for a decadent moonlight soak.

Most visitors come to Africa looking for the wildlife and the beauty, yet one of the most spectacular sights of all is the African night sky. In the evening after dinner, at Sanctuary Kusini, the camp manager will uncover the universe with a green laser pointer to show you the way as you embark on a walk through the stars.

Sanctuary Olonana offers guests elegant dinners in the middle of the African bush. As the sun swiftly sinks, the setting is illuminated by a magnificent log fire. Candles flicker in the darkness, throwing golden lights on the table cloth as smiling waiters serve a delicious dinner. After dinner retire to the warmth of the campfire as you absorb the peace and beauty of an African night.
