Footsteps Across The Delta

This programme maintains the elegance and eccentricity of the original African Safari under canvas. The emphasis is on exploring this breathtakingly beautiful and diverse environment as the first African explorers did, either by mokoro or on foot. Enjoy one of the great, untamed regions of Africa from ground level; a variety of habitats, riverine forest, palm islands, permanent swamps and dry sandveld all with an unparalleled wealth of animal diversity.

Footsteps Across The Delta is a comfortable camp within the private Shinde Concession which accommodates up to six guests in three specially designed twin-bedded tents with sewn-in floors. Each tent has its own bucket shower and bush toilet, and even a daily laundry service. The 'bush kitchen' is run by our chef who prepares menus to whet every appetite.

Footsteps Across The Delta offers the highlights of a true safari experience. No special training is required as distances travelled resemble those of early days, where the emphasis is on exploration and discovery, each morning tracking fresh spoor to reveal the night's events.

Availability of other activities varies throughout the year and includes early morning or late afternoon game drives, mokoro or fishing trips.
