Is a Redefined Botswana Slow Safari Concept for Me?

Embark on a transformative journey through Botswana’s enchanting landscapes with Feline Fields Vintage Camp and Feline Fields Lodge, two distinct safari experiences in legendary destinations. Here, amidst the untouched beauty of the Okavango Delta and the rhythmic pulse of the Kalahari, you’ll find a sanctuary that beckons you to escape the ordinary and immerse yourself in the extraordinary.

This safari isn’t just a vacation; it’s a soul-stirring retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. It’s a chance to disconnect from the noise of the modern world and rediscover the primal rhythm of nature. Nestled within these magnificent surroundings, you’ll find exquisite accommodations and unparalleled amenities that cater to your every need.

With exclusive access to vast expanses teeming with iconic wildlife, each day brings new adventures and discoveries. Extended nights allow for leisurely game viewing, moments of tranquil relaxation, and opportunities to reconnect with loved ones amidst the serenity of the wilderness.

While designed for two, this safari is ideal for families or groups of friends seeking a deeper connection with Botswana, free from the constraints of hurried travel. Here, time slows down, allowing you to savor every moment and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Spacious and romantic, Feline Fields Vintage Camp's eight bell tents take "glamping" to new levels.

Add in rugs, butler trays, Victoriana-style pot plants and swish cane furniture and you have all the modern comforts with oodles of vintage style.

Enjoy two days filled with wonderful game viewing. This area is renowned for its high concentrations of predators like lion and leopard, huge herds of elephant and buffalo.

The wildlife sightings in the Khwai area are truly extraordinary and the focus of your stay. While in camp, you'll have the opportunity to see some of the most prolific wildlife in Africa, including huge herds of elephant and buffalo, predators like lion and leopard, and plentiful general plains game, as well as hundreds of bird species.

Overlooking the Khwai River, Feline Fields Vintage Camp's lounge and dining tents are the perfect place to kick back and relax during the heat of the day and enjoy wonderfully flavorful meals while sharing stories of the day's adventures.

Today you pack your bags and say your good-byes to the Khwai region, as you will board a helicopter for a scenic helicopter transfer flying over the Okavango plains, to reach a very remote area within the Kalahari region.

The Kalahari is a desert like no other, an ancient land of semi-arid savannah that seems to stretch forever, filled with a rich diversity of life. This is the ancestral homeland of Africa's First People - the San Bushmen - whose fascinating culture permeates everything in this incredible destination.

Arrive at the lodge where you are met by the safari guide and lodge manager who will take you through the options of activities during your stay.

Feline Fields Lodge sits in the northern reaches of the Kalahari, to the west of the Okavango Delta, not far from the border with neighbouring Namibia. Completely off-grid, using state-of-the-art solar technology, it's a retreat in every sense of the word, offering a range of activities from desert biking, game drives and horse riding to guided walks, tennis and even golf practice!

You will get to enjoy fireside storytelling and walks in the Kalahari with the Bushmen, as well as visits to local villages and the chance to witness genuine mystical and spiritual trance dances.

There are a range of activities on offer, you can also choose to spend the day at the lodge, relax at the pool, book a spa treatment and immerse yourself fully in nature. From meeting the San Bushmen to spending a night under a million stars, Feline Fields Lodge is all about creating magical moments for you and your loved ones.

The game drives in the Kalahari allow you to explore the impressive landscapes and unique environments that make this desert region so special. While not a prime game viewing area, you may nonetheless see elephants and other desert-adapted species like gemsbok, as well as amazing birdlife including ostriches and secretary birds.

Join the San Bushmen for a guided walk through the Kalahari, learning about their traditional way of life and the plants and animals that sustain them. You will find out about the medicinal qualities of the endemic flora and how to find water and store it, keeping it fresh for weeks, as well as how to make fire and find food.

The Kalahari is perfect for horse riding, with its vast, largely flat landscape making it exciting to explore from the saddle. Enjoy guided trails through this unique environment and stop for a bush breakfast or lunch along the way.

You will have your own sand bike for your use during your stay. Feel free to cycle at will in and around the lodge or go out into the Kalahari with one of our guides and explore further afield.

(Package based on a bush suite, chat to us to upgrade to a pool suite).

Every itinerary can be crafted to your needs, from adjusting the length of your stay to including different accommodation and refining the route. Your safari is yours, shaped around your idea of a dream experience.

This was our first trip to Africa. We had already decided on Botswana but needed guidance as to the best camps to suit our preference for good bird spotting as well as seeing animals large & small, walking safaris, boat & mokoro excursions in the Okavango Delta. We also wanted to stay a good few days at each camp & really get the feel of the camp & the area, rather than rushing from one to another spending only 2 or 3 nights at each.

Vihann paid close attention to the things that interested us & put together an itinerary which perfectly suited our needs. This consisted of 5 nights each at 3 camps, Leroo La Tau, Nxamaseri Island & Camp Okavango. All 3 camps are run by Desert & Delta, & we will separately review the camps elsewhere. Highlights included large numbers of giraffe, elephant, zebra & the many different antelopes at Leroo La Tau; extraordinary birdlife at Nxamaseri (almost matched by the other 2 camps); close encounters with hippo, crocodile & (on no fewer than 3 different walks) lions at Camp Okavango.

Vihann arranged the camps & internal flights, & ensured everything ran smoothly. He also answered our numerous questions patiently. Desert & Delta combine comfort, good facilities, expert guiding & excellent food with something even more important – a genuinely friendly & joyful atmosphere that is more than simple “professional” friendliness”. The camps are also very efficiently run. Desert & Delta’s style suited our preference for camps where guests & staff mingle, & the atmosphere is sociable, something else which Vihann had also taken on board when putting together our trip.

We would very highly recommend Discover Africa!

"Discover Africa Safaris were great to deal with. Cayleigh put together an excellent itinerary which included Victoria Falls, Chobe National Park, the Okavango Delta and Maun. It included everything we requested, with excellent accommodation, transfers and safaris. Everything went smoothly...."
