Set
amongst the shady trees and water of the Okavango Delta, the
intimate Baines' Camp features five luxurious suites set on
elevated platforms in the tree line. Wooden decks offer
expansive views over the permanent water of the Boro River and
a lagoon teeming with life. The elevated suites feature a
luxurious bedroon, with softly draped fabrics adding the
romantic touch of a bygone era. The four-poster beds are fully
mobile, giving guests the choice of slumber under star laden
skies. Avid astronomers will delight in stargazing from the
privacy of their own deck.
This
exclusive lodge is named after the famed nineteenth century
explorer and artist, Thomas Baines. The main area
features an oversize deck for outer dining and views over the
permanent water of the lagoon, as well as a swimming pool with
2 sala's for refreshing sunbathing.
ACTIVITIES
This
area, situated on a private concession neighbouring the
Moremi, is superb for viewing all animal and bird species.
Guests may explore by land and water, often into the night to
discover nocturnal species. The permanent water of the camp
will reveal a world of floating safaris, atmospherically
silent at the gentle pace of apoler mekoro (dug out canoe)
excursion, or faster in a comfortable shaded motor boat
(subject to water levels). A myriad of waterways, feathery
beds of papyrus, and animal species, large and small, are
waiting to be discovered. Sometimes there is no better way to
tune into the bush than on foot, and walking safaris is a
speciality at Baines', with skilled, armed guides introducing
the area's natural wonders.
The
choice of activities will not end there. The unique and
educational elephant interaction is available to guests at
Baines'.
