HOT OFF THE PRESS: INTRODUCING GRAY'S EDEN
Ker & Downey Botswana has just announced a partnership with a brand new luxury boutique hotel in the safari outpost town of Maun, gateway to the Okavango Delta, Gray's Eden.
Comprised of just 12 individually decored rooms (5 sumptuous Villas and 7 youthful and spirited Cottages), Grays Eden’s rooms all feature generous verandas and light, airy living spaces. A ceiling fan and fireplace assure coolness and warmth, when needed.
Whether you choose to unwind on a lounger at the high embankment pool overlooking the Thamalakane River, indulge with an in-villa spa treatment after long distance travel or revel in a private culinary and wine experience in the Cliff Wine Cellar, Grays Eden is the perfect addition on the doorstep of the Northern Botswana safari circuit which allows travellers a restful, then seamless transition into or out of their wilderness adventure.
Yet another reason to book a pre or post night in Maun and discover the treasures of our little town.
Gray's Eden opens doors on the 15th of July 2024.
One of the first things you may feel like doing is take kick off your shoes and walk bare-foot on arrival at Camp Chitubu. That is just how homey it feels. This brand new Safaris camp in Hwange National Park is set upon a ridge overlooking a natural spring, guaranteeing water all year round. The dams situated on the game drive routes also provide for an excellent opportunity to catch game coming in for a drink in the mornings and evenings.
Thank you Africa's Eden for including this in our fam trip itinerary.
We have been on a magical Pre-Tour in Zimbabwe put together by Africa's Eden. This charming and sociable gem of a camp in Hwange National Park is Safaris and we got to spend a wonderful 2 nights there. This camp is a perfect for travellers looking for an authentic experience with a 5 star service. Find out more about including Deteema in your itineraries to your clients.

It has been a phenomenal week for us attending WTM Africa 2024 under the Botswana Tourism stand. We reconnected with colleagues and made new and meaningful connections with agents interested in packaging Botswana experiences to the world. We are excited about the growth of Botswana’s tourism and proud to be a part of it.

This past weekend we got to experience the magic of North Island Okavango. An intimate 3 roomed (soon to be 4) camp in the heart of the delta. We were blown away not only by its beauty, but the diversity in scenery and game viewing experience. With the beautiful combination of both land and water activities, we would recommend it for at least a 3 night stay.
Thank you Natural Selection staff for the warm hospitality.

Combine romance and luxury with a hint of adventure as you relax just 12km upstream of Victoria Falls. Welcome to Tongabezi ❤
We are excited about the new Desert & Delta Safaris Savute Safari Lodge re-opening on the 1st of June 2024.
With the waterhole in front of the lodge being such a focal point of the Savute experience, a lot of work has gone into making the main area and sunken hide one of the most thrilling places to be in Botswana. All guest rooms have views over the Savute Channel ensuring dramatic wildlife viewing.
The sophisticated, yet simple interior décor, blends elements of a traditional safari lodge with a clean, contemporary feel while the colour palate draws inspiration from the harsh and dramatic contrasts of the dry Savute region.
We hope you enjoy the renders

Happy Friday from us to you at Outer Limits Travel.
As it's the norm we took thousands of pictures on Safari ...... and instagram only allows 10. So we had to toss coins on what we'd like to share with you of our game viewing experience while staying in the Shinde Concession. We hope you enjoy them and that they may inspire you to see them in person. We are always available to make that happen.
Thank you Ker & Downey Botswana for this wonderful trip.
INTRODUCING SHINDE FOOTSTEPS
We spent a night here and we could not help but fall in love with this new baby from Ker & Downey Botswana.
Just having been rebranded and rebuilt in May (this year), the 4 tented Shinde Footsteps is situated in the Shinde Concession on the northern edge of the Okavango delta. At Footsteps, you can experience a lovely balance of both land and water based activities. What we loved best is the diversity in scenery, from thick woodlands, marsh, to open wide spaces, perfect for walks. In addition, you can book a helicopter scenic flight right from camp.
It is perfect for small groups traveling together and families as it includes a 2 bedroomed tent. Each tent has both a indoor and outdoor shower and can be configured either into a twin or double bed.
Contact us for your Shinde Footseteps experience
We were treated to a helicopter scenic ride on arrival at Ker & Downey Botswana Shinde Footsteps! This is a must include on your next safari to enhance your whole experience.
With the doors removed, one can enjoy the unobsured views for miles ahead. We saw large heards of buffalo and elephant, huge pods of hippos and everything else in between. A photographer's dream and a beauty for the naked eye.
Early morning prints are always exciting! How many prints can you identify here?
Thank you Ker & Downey Botswana for an amazing stay at Shinde!
With 6 daily activities to choose from, we opted for the waterways and tried our hand at fishing. Our guide Robbie is a rockstar and we are lucky enough to have him for another day!

At Kwando Safaris Nxai Pan camp, frequent visitors to the water hole include elephants, cheetah, as well as the migratory herds of zebra. Stay a little longer and do a day trip to the highly popular Baines’ Baobabs. #bainesbaobabs #nxaipan #kwandosafaris #botswanasafaris #saltpans
We watched this beautiful female cheetah 🐆 at the game rich Splash Camp - Kwando Safaris in the Kwara Concession for quite a while, until she decided to get up and stalk some impala. #funfact: Cheetahs are blisteringly fast and can reach speeds up to 64 miles per hour in 3 seconds, making them the fastest land animals in the world over short distances. For comparison with humans, Usain Bolt currently holds the record as the fastest man in the world, with a top speed of around 27 miles per hour. #kwandosafaris #splashcamp #Cheetahs #safari #botswanasafari #okavangodelta #kwara
This guy at Kwando Safaris’ Lebala Camp came to give us a quick inspection before joining the pack on a hunt. Fact: The African wild dog is one of the world's most endangered mammals and can be identified by its long legs and irregular fur patterns. Wild dogs live in packs and are extremely social and known to help other members of the pack when weak or ill. The same goes for hunting, with up to 20 working together. #wilddogs #africanwilddog #kwandosafaris #botswanasafari #luxurytravel #wildlifephotography #lebalacamp
This was taken on our recent trip to some of Kwando Safaris camps across Botswana: An elephant balancing on 3 legs to have a sip at the Nxai Pan Camp waterhole. The camp’s nine tents face the waterhole, with the main area being the central best place for game viewing. #nxaipancamp #nxaipannationalpark #kwandosafaris #elephant🐘 #botswanasafaris
