If one-off experiences are what you’re looking for on your African safari then Abu Camp is for you.
The Elephant Interaction experience has made Abu Camp very well known in safari circles. The camp has a resident herd – which you are personally introduced to on arrival – with activities including walking with the elephants, physically interacting with the herd, elephant-back safaris and participating in their care being just some of the ways guests can interact with these gentle giants.
Accommodation is no less luxurious as the camp is enthralling and guests can relax in style in their huge tented suites with generous decking areas. After a long day’s safari, you can relax in the swimming pool before enjoying an al fresco dinner of a very high standard with a complementing tipple from the wine cellar.
For a once in a lifetime experience like no other, spend a night under the stars with the elephants while sleeping in the Abu Camp’s Star Bed – raised above the ground, you’ll sleep beneath a canopy of stars while listening to the elephants dozing!
