Testimony Thursday’s via @tripadvisor
“We had 3 great days at Kanga camp - seeing elephants closer up than ever before. Camp is nice with a great relaxed feeling. Seb was a great host and Cliff was our guide on the drives , having a lot of passion and knowledge of the nature & animals. As so much of animal life is around the camp the drives where a bit quiet but still nice with many birds and we got a great sighting of a leopard. But to conclude, here you get your thrills at the deck of the camp when elephants come so close they almost touch you and for sure they spray you with mud”

Imagine this; waking up just before the sun rises and being alerted by your guide that a pride of lions was just spotted near the camp or a pack of wild dogs are actively in pursuit of hunting down their prey. 🐘🐆🦁
Viewing wildlife on a game-drive, walking or mokoro safari is a magical experience. Some of our guests have described it as utterly breathtaking. A trip to Africa is worthy of being on every travellers bucket list. 🧡
The three most popular destinations to experience an epic African safari are Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Zambia.
These southern African countries’ biggest drawcards are their diversity in wildlife and iconic landscapes, not to mention their rich cultural history and resources.

It provides beautiful vistas, gorgeous sunsets, excellent fishing, boating options, water sports, and fantastic peaceful vacations or weekends spent soaking up the sun. 🧡
Lake Kariba covers an area of almost 6,000 square kilometres and is fed by the Zambezi River, which originates in Zambia and flows through Mozambique towards the Indian Ocean. 🌊

Trees give us life! Not only do they provide shade on a sunny day, give us amazing views, they also provide oxygen, shelter, and food for the animals. 🧡🌳🌴🌲
Trees play a huge role in the ecosystem, climate and soil erosion - what would we be without them? 🌳
At African Bush Camps we LOVE trees and this #loveatreeday we'd like to celebrate some of our favourites, which can also be found at our camps.
They are : fig-trees, acacia / thorn trees, baobab trees, sausage trees and so many more!
What is your favourite tree? Let us know in the comments 🧡

Happy Dance Day 💃🏽🕺🏽
The song is a story of a young Ndebele warrior. The warrior song is rejoicing the discovery of his long lost father.
When the Ndebele tribes split and sepearted from the Zulu tribes after Mzilikazi's raids on neighbouring clans they settled in Zimbabwe. In their escape from the wrath of King Shaka, who was denied the rewards of Mzilikazi's conquests, the young warrior and his father would never see each other again.
To protect the warrior from agony the tribe and all his family hid the truth about his father's whereabouts.
Years passed as the warrior longed to know what became of his father and he was suddenly overcome with dreams of his father, "lasemaphutseni ngiyamazi baba".
His Grandmother saw his grief and yearning for closure and whispered to him that his father is well and that he remained in the Zulu lands.
A joyous moment for the warrior to know his father was alive and well. 🧡
