Six walk-in tents, especially designed for the prevailing conditions, and each with an en-suite bathroom, complete the picture of an ‘old Africa’-type safari camp, with the emphasis on outdoor living and closeness to nature. Large, hot buckets are hoisted on demand for your outdoor shower, hammocks beckon from the shade, and your delicious meals may well be prepared for you by Tsogang, who runs the camp with her husband ‘Doctor’, one of the most hospitable, charming and competent guides you are likely to encounter anywhere.

 

The concession hosts the Botswana Predator Conservation Project, with establishedprogrammesof research into lion, spotted hyaena, cheetah and leopard currently under way. Guests may, by special arrangement, avail themselves of the expertise of researchers and enjoy specialist talks on these fascinating animals – and in rare cases actually accompany the researchers into the field in search of their subjects.

 

 

 

Sankuyo is not just about predators however. The area boasts a host of plains game, elephant, and in particular giraffe, which occur here in densities not often found elsewhere. Birding too is excellent, especially for raptors, and the rare Crimson-breasted shrike is commonly seen. Drives are conducted by day and night in custom built vehicles, and several hides are being planned for those who prefer to wait for the game to come to them.
