Fresh is Good!

Wake up early in the morning as your tent attendant brings fresh coffee, tea or hot chocolate to your room.

Upon your return to camp an early buffet lunch is served under the trees out on the deck of the main area. The menu includes a selection of meat and vegetarian dishes, salads and freshly baked breads. Afternoon tea is definitely a highlight for most, the selection of cakes, warm scones and quiche to name a few is something most find hard to resist.

Return to the camp for pre-dinner drinks around the boma area as you discuss the sightings of the day with friends and family. Celebrating a special occasion? Sanctuary Chief’s Camp can arrange a romantic private dinner on your suite deck or by the pool area.

Game Viewing

Moremi is renowned for its large concentrations of plains-game, elephant and buffalo, and as the predator capital of the world, the game viewing will be incredible!

Linda Pampallis – CEO Thompsons Africa recently spent a few days at Sanctuary Chief’s Camp and had this to say, ‘The new rooms are well laid out, very functional, beautifully decorated – the highlight is the plunge pool and the Tsala overlooking the very busy waterhole… oh my – such a luxury to dip and then rest while game viewing with binoculars!

Our game ranger ‘Ken’ was excellent. We had amazing sightings with the absolute amazing one being a double kill by a pack of wild dogs – exciting, gory, unbelievable! Wild nature in front of our eyes. And SO much more – being in the heart of the Moremi Game Reserve is such a super highlight.
