Why Sango Safari Camp is Eco-Friendly
Sango Safari Camp is located in one of the most unique Wildlife Areas in Botswana – on the banks of the Khwai River, close to the border of the Moremi Game Reserve. Developing and managing a Lodge in such a delicate area, remaining ‘green’ and reducing one’s carbon-footprint is of the utmost importance to us and the least we can do to contribute to the conservation of this incredible wilderness.
The Eco Friendliness of Chobe Elephant Camp
Chobe Elephant Camp is based in the semi-arid bush of Africa – overlooking the floodplains of the Chobe River. While developing the Lodge we had to address the challenge of extreme temperature variations of this area and how to combat this. Initially we planned to build Chobe Elephant Camp with the same Canvas material Sango Safari Camp is made of. However once we had experienced the extreme conditions we realised that this was not the ideal material to use.

Of Bushcamps and Bucket Lists
It is with great pleasure to publish this wonderful article, written by one of our guests, Daphne Gernetzky, who was on a Fish Eagle Safari in August this year. Our Fish Eagle Adventure Camping Safari is the perfect way to experience the very best wildlife areas Botswana has to offer.

From nuts and bolts to seeds and crops

Bush Ways’ Christmas Drive
Christmas is fast approaching! Soon we will be surrounded by smiling friends and relatives, exciting presents and tasty delicacies, colourful dresses and sparkling glasses. Before being ourselves blessed with so much warmth and profusion, we feel it is the perfect time of the year to think of all the people who are not as privileged as we are and make sure they can also experience a very special Christmas time.
Through the Eyes of a Safari Guide
A distant lion roar broke the rhythmic monotonous sound of a hippo munching grass near the campsite. I struggled up out of my sleeping bag to get my ear to the tent window, hoping they would roar again so I could estimate a direction and distance, we had been on Safari now for several days and had not yet managed to spot them.
What is a Adventure Camping Safari?
So, let’s start where we left off in our last Bush Ways’ User guide post. You had opened our website homepage, www.bushways.com, your mouse was on the main menu, the little arrow placed on top “Our Safaris”, and the words, “Adventure Camping”, “Premium Camping” and “Accommodated” had appeared.
Entry Requirements: How to Make Sure Your Safari Doesn’t End Before It Begins
There are a few different matters you will need to look into while starting to plan a trip to Botswana. Visa requirements should be one of the first to enquire about as, depending on the agreements between your country of origin and Botswana, the visa application process may require some time.
