"This is Fred. These days, he’s spending a lot of time around camp.

Fred’s got quite the reputation. He’s the second elephant to learn the famous ‘stand-up' trick from Boswell - yes, up on his hind legs, just like that. But Fred’s got his own flair. Before he rises, he does a little shuffle, almost like he’s dancing.

That’s how he got his name, Fred, after Fred Astaire. Our very own elephant dancer.” - Taffy, Host at Nyamatusi Camp

“Returning to African Bush Camps for the second time in a year - after an unforgettable honeymoon in Botswana - felt like coming home. 
 
There’s something special about the atmosphere at Nyamatusi Camp, a warmth and personal touch that’s hard to put into words but easy to feel. Mana Pools was simply magical. Being on the river, surrounded by raw wilderness, was unforgettable. 
 
Incredible wildlife, stunning lodges, and a truly special experience - I hope it’s not my last.” - Ian

Introducing Lady.

The resident female east of Lolebezi, Lady is a young and graceful leopardess. Staying unusually close to her mother Mai’s territory, she provides rare insight into leopard behavior. She exudes elegance and is a captivating sight in the wild.

These are the Leopards of Lolebezi.

At Somalisa Expeditions, our pool overlooks the extraordinary Elephant Pool.

The Elephant Pool is an oasis where elephants come to cool off and socialize during the heat of the day. It’s the perfect spot to watch these gentle giants up close - all from the safety and comfort of camp.

Have you ever been to Somalisa Expeditions? We’d love to hear about your Elephant Pool experience in the comments below!

Plastic pollution is a growing crisis in Victoria Falls, threatening wildlife, ecosystems, and communities.

African Bush Camps Foundation is proud to support Ele-Collection with the opening of a Recycling Hub in Hwange National Park. -Collection is an environmental initiative that collects and recycles waste from the national park and surrounding communities, turning plastic into building materials. This replaces quarry stone and reduces the environmental impact of mishandled plastic waste.

Our Zimbabwe Experiences are also contributing to this effort by sending plastic waste to the Recycling Hub, where it's processed and then transported to Victoria Falls to be repurposed into building materials.

Across all 17 of our Experiences, we’ve also eliminated single-use plastic water bottles by providing guests their own re-usable metal bottles - preventing nearly 98,000 plastic bottles from entering the environment in 2024 - and switched to eco-friendly food packaging.

We’re proud to be part of the solution. Let’s continue to share and conserve Africa, together.
